CI: add tidyverse #368

Closed colinleach closed 1 month ago

colinleach commented 1 month ago

I tried adding tidyverse as a full package, but got alarmed when GH took 11m36s to install the dependencies (lots of C++17 compilation).

Thinking about it some more, we definitely don't need ggplot2 (a big plotting package), and probably don't need tidyr or forcats (mainly about data cleaning). Adding "dplyr", "stringr", "readr", "purrr", "tibble" brought installation time down to 6m20s. I assume GH will cache the results somewhere?

For anyone wondering, this is prompted by PR #365 and problems Erik hit in that case.

Not automatically, no. But let's see how bad it is. Maybe the R action does add some caching. If not, we can add it ourselves.
