Overview

About

Maintained by Antoni CzolgowskiCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Provides an interactive 'RStudio' gadget for working with an AI assistant during package and script development. The gadget can use selected editor text, the active source file, package metadata, and uploaded files as context for code explanation, code generation, documentation, and review workflows. It offers model presets, assistant behavior settings, responsive code-focused output, and explicit copy, insert, and replace actions for the active source editor. API interactions via the 'httr' package are performed asynchronously using 'promises' and 'future' to avoid blocking the R console. The backend is configured via the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable.

Changes in 0.1.3

Attachments: add support for .csv files. CSV data is converted into a model-friendly representation consisting of a dimensions header, a column schema with inferred types, and the rows rendered as a Markdown table.
Attachments: the CSV field delimiter is detected automatically (comma, semicolon, tab, or pipe), and semicolon files with comma decimal marks are handled.
Attachments: large CSV files are truncated to the first 1000 rows with an explicit note; over-long cell values are shortened.
Docs: update README, vignette, and the in-app help to list .csv as a supported attachment format.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("PacketLLM", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("AntoniCzolgowski/PacketLLM")

Development version from AntoniCzolgowski/PacketLLM. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-packetllm

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-PacketLLM

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
