Overview

About

Maintained by Ndoh PennFirst published 2026-06-201 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Audits R scripts for behavioural reproducibility risk. Scans scripts for qualified package::function calls and checks them against a curated database of known silent breaking changes across popular CRAN packages. Flags stochastic calls lacking set.seed() and detects locale-sensitive operations that may produce different results across systems. Supports baseline certification of analytical outputs so that silent numerical drift can be detected across package upgrades or platform changes. Generates human-readable audit reports suitable for academic submission or pharmaceutical QC workflows. For more details see https://github.com/repro-stats/reproducr.

Install

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

install.packages("reproducr", 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("repro-stats/reproducr")

Development version from repro-stats/reproducr. 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-reproducr

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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-reproducr

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-reproducr

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
