Dramatically cut down CI build time by only installing missing dependencies #116

Closed stefanv closed 1 year ago

stefanv commented 1 year ago

We cache R dependencies, so no need to re-install them every time.

See, e.g., https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4090169/elegant-way-to-check-for-missing-packages-and-install-them for workarounds.

From that link - I wonder whether we should consider packrat or renv. Not sure what the implications are for caching there.

stefanv commented 1 year ago

Packrat seems to be dead, at least judging from the mailing list discussions.

stefanv commented 1 year ago

Seems like caching works.
