Installing R in the cluster :)

I managed to install R packages inside the cluster in the local folder.


shell script to run the R install file :

packs=c("zoo","snow","caTools")

for(i in 1:length(packs)){

        install.packages(packs[i],lib="/mnt/home/sinha/Rpackages",dependencies=TRUE,repos='http://cran.us.r-project.org')

}

Then change the bashrc file by adding the following lines

if [ -n $R_LIBS ]; then

   export R_LIBS=/mnt/home/sinha/Rpackages:$R_LIBS

else

   export R_LIBS=/mnt/home/sinha/Rpackages

fi

Similar install perl packages using cpanm  and change the bashrc file by adding the following lines

eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)

eval `perl -I ~/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib`

export MANPATH=$HOME/perl5/man:$MANPATH
