Overview

About

Maintained by Balasubramanian NarasimhanCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Provides bindings to the 'OSQP' solver. The 'OSQP' solver is a numerical optimization package for solving convex quadratic programs written in 'C' and based on the alternating direction method of multipliers. See doi:10.48550/arXiv.1711.08013 for details.

Changes in 1.0.0

Breaking changes

Replaced R6 with S7 classes. Model methods are now accessed via @ (e.g., model@Solve()) instead of $.
Renamed settings to match OSQP 1.0: warm_start -> warm_starting, polish -> polishing. The old names are accepted with deprecation warnings.

New features

Upgraded OSQP C library from 0.6.3 to 1.0.0.
Added WarmStart() and ColdStart() methods for primal/dual warm starting.
New OSQP 1.0 settings: rho_is_vec, check_dualgap, cg_max_iter, cg_tol_reduction, cg_tol_fraction, cg_precond, profiler_level.

New solver info fields: dual_obj_val, duality_gap.

Other changes

Added vignette with examples for lasso regression, portfolio optimization, and warm starting.
User-facing messages now use the cli package.
Vendored QDLDL v0.1.8 for CRAN compatibility.
OSQP C library printing now uses Rprintf instead of printf.
Declared GNU make in SystemRequirements.
R CMD check passes with Status: OK.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

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

install.packages("osqp", 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("osqp/osqp-r")

Development version from osqp/osqp-r. 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-osqp

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-osqp

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

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

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-osqp

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
