NOTE: This applies to both open source and commercial editions of Chocolatey.

1. Ensure you are set for organizational deployment

Please see the organizational deployment guide

  • Open Source or Commercial:
    • Proxy Repository - Create a proxy nuget repository on Nexus, Artifactory Pro, or a proxy Chocolatey repository on ProGet. Point your upstream to https://chocolatey.org/api/v2. Packages cache on first access automatically. Make sure your choco clients are using your proxy repository as a source and NOT the default community repository. See source command for more information.
    • You can also just download the package and push it to a repository Download

3. Enter your internal repository url

(this should look similar to https://chocolatey.org/api/v2)

4. Choose your deployment method:


choco upgrade rtools -y --source="'STEP 3 URL'" [other options]

See options you can pass to upgrade.

See best practices for scripting.

Add this to a PowerShell script or use a Batch script with tools and in places where you are calling directly to Chocolatey. If you are integrating, keep in mind enhanced exit codes.

If you do use a PowerShell script, use the following to ensure bad exit codes are shown as failures:


choco upgrade rtools -y --source="'STEP 3 URL'"
$exitCode = $LASTEXITCODE

Write-Verbose "Exit code was $exitCode"
$validExitCodes = @(0, 1605, 1614, 1641, 3010)
if ($validExitCodes -contains $exitCode) {
  Exit 0
}

Exit $exitCode

Description

Rtools works both for building R itself as well as compiling R packages from source. This Chocolatey package works with the installation defaults, which consist of the standard toolchains based on gcc (32/64 bit mingw-w64) and build utilities (make, bash, tar, sed, etc).

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.

tools Collection 3.5.0.0

This is the Rtools.txt file, which will be installed in the main Rtools directory. See also the README.txt file there, which describes the origin of some of the tools. The tools installed in the Rtools\mingw_32, and Rtools\mingw_64 directories are from the MinGW-w64 distribution.

SYS2

This version upgrades the old cygwin utilities to msys2.

REMAINING TASKS

This installer doesn't install all of the tools necessary to build R or R packages, because of license or size limitations. The remaining tools are all available online (at no charge) as described below.

TO BUILD R PACKAGES, you may optionally want item 1 below (LaTeX).

TO BUILD R, you do need item 1, and item 2 (Inno Setup) is optional if you would like to build the installer.

As of R 3.2.0, the manuals are optional. To build them you will need item 3 below.

The Rtools installer will optionally edit your PATH variable as follows:

PATH=c:\Rtools\bin;others

(where you will substitute appropriate directories for the ones listed above, but please keep the path in the same order as shown. LaTeX and R itself should be installed among the "others".)

REMAINING ITEMS

  1. You may install LaTeX, available from

http://www.miktex.org

LaTeX is used to build .pdf forms of documentation.

  1. You need the Inno Setup installer, available from

http://www.innosetup.com

to build the R installer.

  1. You will need Perl, e.g. from

http://strawberryperl.com/

to build the manuals.

VERSIONS

This installer includes separate 32- and 64-bit builds of gcc 4.9.3 and mingw-w64 v3 compiled by Jeroen Ooms and others. For use with the latter it also includes a copy of libicu55.

The Cygwin tools and DLLs were updated on April 4, 2018. They are 32 bit versions taken from msys2.

Tcl/Tk is version 8.5.8.

EXISTING CYGWIN INSTALLATIONS

We no longer use cygwin.

This package has no dependencies.
