# -------------------------------------------- # CITATION file created with {cffr} R package # See also: https://docs.ropensci.org/cffr/ # -------------------------------------------- cff-version: 1.2.0 message: 'To cite package "pak" in publications use:' type: software license: GPL-3.0-only title: 'pak: Another Approach to Package Installation' version: 0.9.0.9000 doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.pak abstract: The goal of 'pak' is to make package installation faster and more reliable. In particular, it performs all HTTP operations in parallel, so metadata resolution and package downloads are fast. Metadata and package files are cached on the local disk as well. 'pak' has a dependency solver, so it finds version conflicts before performing the installation. This version of 'pak' supports CRAN, 'Bioconductor' and 'GitHub' packages as well. authors: - family-names: Csárdi given-names: Gábor email: csardi.gabor@gmail.com - family-names: Hester given-names: Jim repository: https://r-lib.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/r-lib/pak commit: 72ab88b23c852c2c41e9e11d4286fbe4b60576c3 url: https://pak.r-lib.org/ date-released: '2025-10-21' contact: - family-names: Csárdi given-names: Gábor email: csardi.gabor@gmail.com
