Omit specific packages during installation #108

Open bschilder opened 1 year ago

bschilder commented 1 year ago

We've been running into some issues with using rworkflows with MSS:

https://github.com/neurogenomics/MungeSumstats/issues/170

It seems this is at least partly related to installing massive packages like SNPlocs.Hsapiens.dbSNP155.GRCh37 and SNPlocs.Hsapiens.dbSNP155.GRCh38.

Proposed feature: let users omit specific Suggests from installation within the rworkflows action.

Ideas

Add something to the .Rprofile to omit specific packages. eg options, or editing the local copy of the DESCRIPTION file.
Configure remotes:: install_local to omit specific packages
