Migrate a project from packrat to renv

Migrate a project's infrastructure from packrat to renv.

Usage

migrate(
  project = NULL,
  packrat = c("lockfile", "sources", "library", "options", "cache")
)

Arguments

project: The project directory. If NULL, then the active project will be used. If no project is currently active, then the current working directory is used instead.
packrat: Components of the Packrat project to migrate. See the default argument list for components of the Packrat project that can be migrated. Select a subset of those components for migration as appropriate.

Value

The project directory, invisibly. Note that this function is normally called for its side effects.

Migration

When migrating Packrat projects to renv, the set of components migrated can be customized using the packrat argument. The set of components that can be migrated are as follows:

Name	Description
`lockfile`	Migrate the Packrat lockfile (`packrat/packrat.lock`) to the renv lockfile (`renv.lock`).
`sources`	Migrate package sources from the `packrat/src` folder to the renv sources folder. Currently, only CRAN packages are migrated to renv -- packages retrieved from other sources (e.g. GitHub) are ignored.
`library`	Migrate installed packages from the Packrat library to the renv project library.
`options`	Migrate compatible Packrat options to the renv project.
`cache`	Migrate packages from the Packrat cache to the renv cache.

Examples

if (FALSE) {

# migrate Packrat project infrastructure to renv
renv::migrate()

}
