| session_info {sessioninfo} | R Documentation |
This is [base::sessionInfo()] re-written from scratch to both exclude data that's rarely useful (e.g., the full collate string or base packages loaded) and include stuff you'd like to know (e.g., where a package was installed from).
session_info(pkgs = NULL, include_base = FALSE)
pkgs |
Either a vector of package names or NULL. If |
include_base |
Include base packages in summary? By default this is false since base packages should always match the R version. |
Columns in the *printed* package list: * 'package': package name * '*': whether the package is attached to the search path * 'version': package version. If the version is marked with '(!)' that means that the loaded and the on-disk version of the package are different. * 'date': when the package was built, if this information is available. This is the 'Date/Publication' or the 'Built' field from 'DESCRIPTION'. (These are usually added automatically by R.) Sometimes this data is not available, then it is 'NA'. * 'source': where the package was built or installed from, if available. Examples: 'CRAN (R 3.3.2)', 'Github (r-lib/pkgbuild@8aab60b)', 'Bioconductor', 'local'.
See [package_info()] for the list of columns in the data frame that is *returned* (as opposed to *printed*).
