Create a subdirectory within your HPC group directory called "rlib" to store your installed and compiled packages.
Use the install.packages() function with the repos and lib parameters to specify the source repository and target installation directory, respectively. This will ensure that dependent packages are also installed.
Set the R library path using .libPaths() to include the target installation directory, so R can locate and load the installed packages and their dependencies.
If you need to install a package from a local file, download the package source file and install it using the install.packages()function.
In a Slurm batch, use the Rscript command to execute R scripts and load a version of R. Prior to execution, install any packages required in your R script using an interactive R session and store them in a directory dedicated to the specific R version being used.
