Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
We are [on CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/xgboost/index.html) now. For stable/pre-compiled(for Windows and OS X) version, please install from CRAN:
|
|
|
|
```r
|
|
install.packages('xgboost')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also install from our weekly updated drat repo:
|
|
```r
|
|
install.packages("drat", repos="https://cran.rstudio.com")
|
|
drat:::addRepo("dmlc")
|
|
install.packages("xgboost", repos="http://dmlc.ml/drat/", type="source")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
***Important*** Due to the usage of submodule, `install_github` is no longer support to install the
|
|
latest version of R package.
|
|
For up-to-date version, please install from github. Windows user will need to install [RTools](http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/) first.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone --recursive https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost
|
|
cd xgboost
|
|
make Rbuild
|
