Hi,

I am working with a client who uses internally developed packagre repo which are locally developed packages and available through a CRAN-like repo. As per Package Manager documentation there are 4 ways of repo source- CRAN, subset of CRAN, local and git. Where will this internal repo fit in? Do I add it through local tar based repo?

Thanks!

@gagandeep - Instead of adding their whole CRAN-like repo to RStudio Package Manager, you'll want to add the individual packages they've created internally and use RStudio Package Manager to surface those packages as a repository.

There are two options:

  1. You can add the tar files for each internal package to a local source

  2. If the packages are developed internally using Git, you can create a Git source and add each Git repository containing an internal package to the Git source
