Re: [R] Saving/loading custom R scripts
I'm still relatively new to R, so I tried the first of you two solutions:
.First - function(){
source(Friedman-Test-with-Post-Hoc.r.txt)
}
Thanks very much for that, it works perfectly
Cheers

Re: [R] Saving/loading custom R scripts
Josh,
I liked your idea of setting the repo in the .Rprofile file, so I tried it:
r - getOption(repos)
r[CRAN] - http://cran.stat.ucla.edu;
options(repos = r)
rm(r)
And now when I open R I get an error:
Error in r[CRAN] - http://cran.stat.ucla.edu; :
cannot do complex assignments in base namespace
I am using R2.11.1pat in windows.
Thanks,
Roger

Hi,
Just create a file called .Rprofile that is located in your working directory
(this means you could actually have different ones in each working directory).
In that file, you can put in code just like any other code that would be
source()d in. For instance, all my .Rprofile files start with:
r - getOption(repos)
r[CRAN] - http://cran.stat.ucla.edu;
options(repos = r)
rm(r)
So that I do not have to pick my CRAN mirror. Similarly you could merely add
this line to the file:
source(file =
http://www.r-statistics.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Friedman-Test-with-Post-Hoc.r.txt;)
and R would go online, download that file and source it in (not that I am
recommending re-downloading every time you start R). Then whatever names they
used to define the functions, would be in your workspace.
Note that in general, you will not get any output alerting you that it has
worked; however, if you type ls() you should see those functions'
names.
Cheers,
Josh

This would be for Ubuntu, if that makes any difference.

I couldn't understand why to use 4 lines of code... You could try this:
You can have more than one repository, using repos = url, will
overwrite all of them. For instance, I believe it is standard on
Windows to have CRAN and CRANextra. The one line option probably
would be fine often. In any case, reading through the documentation,
the code used there is:
local({r -
getOption(repos); r[CRAN] - http://my.local.cran;;
options(repos=r)})
perhaps wrapping it in local() will take care of your problem, Roger.
options(repos = http://cran.stat.ucla.edu;)

Re: [R] Saving/loading custom R scripts
You can create a .First function in your .Rprofile file (which will
be in ~/.Rprofile). For example
.First - function(){
source(Friedman-Test-with-Post-Hoc.r.txt)
}
You can also create your own package (mylibrary) down the line (see
the R manual for creating extensions at
http://cran.fhcrc.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.pdf) which will be a collection
of your custom scripts that you have written, and then you can
automatically load them using
.First - function(){
library(mylibrary)
}
Hope this helps.

Re: [R] Saving/loading custom R scripts
.. Not quite. ?Startup provides details, but note the comment about only the base package being loaded and the need to use somepackage::somefunction() or to explicitly first load a package whose functions are used in .Profile. Note also that .First could also be used instead of putting the code in a profile file.

Re: [R] Saving/loading custom R scripts
One comment on the function: I see that it uses T/F instead of TRUE/FALSE in a number of places. You'll save yourself some headaches if you replace those 'T/F's. -Peter Ehlers On 2010-09-08 1:25, DrCJones wrote: Hi, How does R automatically load functions so that they are available from the workspace?
