Package: Herper Type: Package Title: The Herper package is a simple toolset to install and manage conda packages and environments from R Version: 1.23.0 Authors@R: c(person("Matt", "Paul", , "matthew.paul.2006@gmail.com", role = c("aut"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-3020-7729")), person("Thomas", "Carroll", , "tc.infomatics@gmail.com", role = c("aut", "cre"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-0073-1714")), person("Doug", "Barrows", , "doug.barrows@gmail.com", role = c("aut")), person("Kathryn", "Rozen-Gagnon", , "krozen@rockefeller.edu", role = c("ctb"))) Description: Many tools for data analysis are not available in R, but are present in public repositories like conda. The Herper package provides a comprehensive set of functions to interact with the conda package managament system. With Herper users can install, manage and run conda packages from the comfort of their R session. Herper also provides an ad-hoc approach to handling external system requirements for R packages. For people developing packages with python conda dependencies we recommend using basilisk (https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/basilisk.html) to internally support these system requirments pre-hoc.
