list all functions on CRAN

问题


Suppose I'm trying to run a script of unknown origin, and one of the functions is from a package that is not loaded by the script (an oversight, maybe it was loaded in the .Rprofile of the person who wrote it). How can I find in which package this function resides?

There's some information compiled on CRAN, that doesn't require the user to download/install all R packages locally; however as far as I could tell it only gives access to the DESCRIPTION files. RSiteSearch, and its web equivalent, seem to access an online database of all CRAN packages, where presumably a list of all functions would be available. Is there some way of accessing this information?

Thanks.

Edit: I know sos::findFn, utils::RSiteSearch and search.r-project; what I would like is to get the raw data that these tools use.


回答1:


You can use the sos package, for example:

library(sos)
findFn("adply")

The output is an html including links to online documentation packages.




回答2:


collidr package will give you this

library(collidr)
collidr::packages_and_functions_dataframe

It will return a list of packages and their functions from CRAN i.e.
