我使用以下函数安装包，如果require("<包>")退出包未发现错误。它将查询- CRAN和Bioconductor存储库，以查找丢失的包。

改编自约书亚·威利的原著， http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Install-package-automatically-if-not-there-td2267532.html

install.packages.auto <- function(x) { 
  x <- as.character(substitute(x)) 
  if(isTRUE(x %in% .packages(all.available=TRUE))) { 
    eval(parse(text = sprintf("require(\"%s\")", x)))
  } else { 
    #update.packages(ask= FALSE) #update installed packages.
    eval(parse(text = sprintf("install.packages(\"%s\", dependencies = TRUE)", x)))
  }
  if(isTRUE(x %in% .packages(all.available=TRUE))) { 
    eval(parse(text = sprintf("require(\"%s\")", x)))
  } else {
    source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
    #biocLite(character(), ask=FALSE) #update installed packages.
    eval(parse(text = sprintf("biocLite(\"%s\")", x)))
    eval(parse(text = sprintf("require(\"%s\")", x)))
  }
}

例子:

install.packages.auto(qvalue) # from bioconductor
install.packages.auto(rNMF) # from CRAN

注:更新。packages(ask =FALSE) & biocLite(character()， ask=FALSE)将更新系统上所有已安装的软件包。这可能需要很长时间，并将其视为一个完整的R升级，这可能并不总是有保障的!

关于你的主要目标“安装他们还没有的库”。并且不管使用" installed .packages() "”。下面的函数掩码了require的原始函数。它尝试加载和检查命名包“x”，如果它没有安装，直接安装它，包括依赖项;最后正常加载。将函数名从'require'重命名为'library'以保持完整性。唯一的限制是包名应该加引号。

require <- function(x) { 
  if (!base::require(x, character.only = TRUE)) {
  install.packages(x, dep = TRUE) ; 
  base::require(x, character.only = TRUE)
  } 
}

所以你可以加载和安装包的旧时尚的方式R。 要求(“ggplot2”) 要求(“Rcpp”)

让我分享一点疯狂:

c("ggplot2","ggsci", "hrbrthemes", "gghighlight", "dplyr") %>%  # What will you need to load for this script?
  (function (x) ifelse(t =!(x %in% installed.packages()), 
    install.packages(x[t]),
    lapply(x, require))) 

下面是我的代码:

packages <- c("dplyr", "gridBase", "gridExtra")
package_loader <- function(x){
    for (i in 1:length(x)){
        if (!identical((x[i], installed.packages()[x[i],1])){
            install.packages(x[i], dep = TRUE)
        } else {
            require(x[i], character.only = TRUE)
        }
    }
}
package_loader(packages)

 48 lapply_install_and_load <- function (package1, ...)
 49 {
 50     #
 51     # convert arguments to vector
 52     #
 53     packages <- c(package1, ...)
 54     #
 55     # check if loaded and installed
 56     #
 57     loaded        <- packages %in% (.packages())
 58     names(loaded) <- packages
 59     #
 60     installed        <- packages %in% rownames(installed.packages())
 61     names(installed) <- packages
 62     #
 63     # start loop to determine if each package is installed
 64     #
 65     load_it <- function (p, loaded, installed)
 66     {
 67         if (loaded[p])
 68         {
 69             print(paste(p, "loaded"))
 70         }
 71         else
 72         {
 73             print(paste(p, "not loaded"))
 74             if (installed[p])
 75             {
 76                 print(paste(p, "installed"))
 77                 do.call("library", list(p))
 78             }
 79             else
 80             {
 81                 print(paste(p, "not installed"))
 82                 install.packages(p)
 83                 do.call("library", list(p))
 84             }
 85         }
 86     }
 87     #
 88     lapply(packages, load_it, loaded, installed)
 89 }

此解决方案将获取包名的字符向量并尝试加载它们，或者在加载失败时安装它们。它依赖于require的返回行为来做到这一点，因为…

Require返回(不可见的)一个逻辑，指示所需的包是否可用

因此，我们可以简单地查看是否能够加载所需的包，如果不能，则使用依赖项安装它。所以给定一个你想要加载的包的字符向量…

foo <- function(x){
  for( i in x ){
    #  require returns TRUE invisibly if it was able to load package
    if( ! require( i , character.only = TRUE ) ){
      #  If package was not able to be loaded then re-install
      install.packages( i , dependencies = TRUE )
      #  Load package after installing
      require( i , character.only = TRUE )
    }
  }
}

#  Then try/install packages...
foo( c("ggplot2" , "reshape2" , "data.table" ) )
