Configure a Python Environment
Configure a Python environment, satisfying the Python dependencies of any loaded R packages.
configure_environment(package = NULL, force = FALSE)
package |
The name of a package to configure. When |
force |
Boolean; force configuration of the Python environment? Note
that |
Normally, this function should only be used by package authors, who want to ensure that their package dependencies are installed in the active Python environment. For example:
.onLoad <- function(libname, pkgname) {
reticulate::configure_environment(pkgname)
}If the Python session has not yet been initialized, or if the user is not
using the default Miniconda Python installation, no action will be taken.
Otherwise, reticulate will take this as a signal to install any required
Python dependencies into the user's Python environment.
If you'd like to disable reticulate's auto-configure behavior altogether,
you can set the environment variable:
RETICULATE_AUTOCONFIGURE = FALSE
e.g. in your ~/.Renviron or similar.
Note that, in the case where the Python session has not yet been initialized,
reticulate will automatically ensure your required Python dependencies
are installed after the Python session is initialized (when appropriate).
Please choose more modern alternatives, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
