install package from local file?

Open Pakillo opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Thanks for the package! Looks very nice :) It seems to combine the ease of checkpoint with the ability to control packages out of CRAN.

I wonder if it's possible to automatically install packages from local files (zip, tar.gz)? It would be nice to have that option in addition to CRAN and GitHub... For example, for packages that have disappeared (or will eventually disappear) from GitHub but we have downloaded a local copy.

Thanks

Thanks! I have selfishly made this package for my own usage and have not yet come across the need to install from local files, so I don't plan to add this feature anytime soon, but pull requests are welcome 😃

Ok, no problem! Let's see if we find time one day... But the pkg looks very nice anyway, will definitely try it. Cheers!
