Installing packages

[Radek]

Hi,

I need to do some calculations using bioconductor. Typically I would install it in the following way:

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")

biocLite("limma")

See: http://www.bioconductor.org/install/

What would be the best way of installing these packages on the segue cluster?

Many thanks,

Radek

In short, I don't really know. I've never used bioc. Let me take a peak at biocLite.R and see if I can figure it out.

I was looking at the source code. Perhaps I should specify otherBootstrapActions and install any additional packages in here?

Cheers,

That would be the first thing i'd look at. You may also be able to put that source() call inside a custom function you write and then call with emrlapply()... and then it will be called on every node. Hackish, but may work.
