A data package which lists every command in base R packages since R version 1.0.1.
The latest R version covered is 4.0.2.
You can view the data online in a Shiny app.
From CRAN:
Versions 4.0.0 and up are installed from the CRAN apt repositories for Ubuntu Bionic.
Versions 3.0.1 to 3.6.3 are installed from the CRAN apt repositories for Ubuntu Trusty Tahr. Version 3.5.0 and up use a special repository.
Versions 2.5.1 to 3.0.0 are built from source on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx.
Versions 1.2.3 to 2.4.1 are mostly built from source on Debian Sarge.
Versions 1.0.1 to 1.2.2 (and a couple of later versions) are built from source on Debian Woody.
Results are found from running ls
on all installed packages from a minimal installation. Recommended packages are not included.
The Rversions
data frame lists versions of R and release dates.
./control build
builds the images. Or get them from https://hub.docker.com/r/dash2/rcheology/../control run
runs the images to build/install R and extract data./control gather
gets CSV files from the containers./control write
puts CSV files into a data frame and stores it in the packagelibrary(rcheology)
