fulfill_deps.Rd
use BiocManager::install to get any unavailable dependencies as defined by BiocPkgTools
fulfill_deps(pkg, depdf = NULL, exclude = "KEGG.db", ...)
character(1) name of package
a data.frame like the output of BiocPkgTools::buildPkgDependencyDataFrame()
character() of uninstalled packages to be ignored -- BiocManager::install is slow to deal with an unavailable package
passed to BiocManager::install
Function is used only for side-effect of installation. exclude
defaults to
'KEGG.db' because in Bioc 3.13 that is not available. It is understood that code
that performs installation is poor style for scientific programming; this package
concerns software ecosystem management and must be able to programmatically
define the ecosystem for evaluation.
