Rcpp drat
Pre-release and test build repository for Rcpp and related packages.
install.packages("drat"), or via install.packages("drat", repos="https://cloud.r-project.org"). Then add drat:::add("RcppCore") to your
.Rprofile file (or to Rprofile.site) and you
are done: install.packages() or update.packages() will now consider the drat repo along with the standard repo.
Method Two:
Pass the repo information directly to install.packages():
install.packages("Rcpp", repos=c("https://RcppCore.github.io/drat", "https://cloud.r-project.org")).
This also passes on the CRAN repo information in case other dependencies are
needed; one can add BioConductor or other repos as needed. And it works
the same for update.packages().
Learn more about drat at the
package documentation site which includes several vignettes.
