Usage

install_miniconda(path = miniconda_path(), update = TRUE, force = FALSE)

Arguments

path

The location where Miniconda is (or should be) installed. Note that the Miniconda installer does not support paths containing spaces. See miniconda_path for more details on the default path used by reticulate.

update

Boolean; update to the latest version of Miniconda after installation?

force

Boolean; force re-installation if Miniconda is already installed at the requested path?

For arm64 builds of R on macOS, install_miniconda() will use binaries from miniforge instead.

Note

If you encounter binary incompatibilities between R and Miniconda, a scripted build and installation of Python from sources can be performed by install_python()
