I have installed R-3.5.1
and Rtools35.exe
. But I am unable to install packages in R
. Somewhere I got,
Make sure the R and Rtools paths are added in the environment variable.
But I don't know what is environment variable and how is to add R and Rtools paths in the environment variable?
The answer provided How to add Rtools\\bin to the system path in R requires library(devtools)
. But install.packages("devtools")
isn't working.
Installing package that has heavy dependencies just to set environment variables doesn't seem to be good solution.
Below solution is for R 4.0.0 and rtools40.
This uses powershell bash, it should be available on all recent Windows versions.
$ENV:PATH = "C:\R\bin;C:\rtools40\usr\bin;$ENV:PATH"
You can see full R 4.0.0 setup on Windows in this CI yaml .
Note that in powershell it is best to refer to applications using .exe
suffix, because powershell has many aliases, so using R
or curl
will not do what you expect, you need R.exe
or curl.exe
instead.
