Table of installed packages in R

The need for this is may not be felt by those who usually use R on the same device, but for those who need to shift from time to time, losing the favourite packages can be so heartbreaking!

But not anymore!

myPackages<-as_tibble(installed.packages())

And sweet is the view of myPackages!

The look is sleeker if we keep the only the package names with or without priority levels:

sweet<-myPackages[, c(1,4)]

And a pro tip before I let you go:

Run the following command to get the list of packages on clipboard:

library(clipr)
sweet$Package <- paste0(sweet$Package, ",")
write_clip(as.vector(t(sweet[,1])))

Paste the clipboard text on the address bar of a web browser to get them all in a single line. Remove the last ‘,’ and pour the rest into pacman and enjoy the next migrations with a breeze:

pacman::p_load(abind,accelerometer, . . . . . . ,anytime)

Anytime!
