Change RStudio library path at home directory

Solution 1:

I got answer:

Edit file ~/.Renviron, add

R_LIBS_USER=/some/path

Next time RStudio starts, it will create directories in /some/path instead of ~/R.

I found really useful this post:

https://community.rstudio.com/t/how-to-set-a-variable-in-renviron/5029/4

It shows hwo you can also use an helper function you can find in the package usethis to modify .Renviron:

usethis::edit_r_environ()
