我使用 checkpoint 包进行可重现的数据分析。有些计算需要很长时间才能计算，所以我想并行运行它们。但是当并行运行时，检查点没有在工作人员上设置，所以我收到一条错误消息“没有名为 xy 的包”（因为它没有安装在我的默认库目录中）。

我如何确保每个工作人员都使用检查点文件夹中的包版本？我试图在 foreach 代码中设置 .libPaths 但这似乎不起作用。我还希望全局设置一次检查点/libPaths，而不是在每个 foreach 调用中设置一次。

另一种选择可能是更改 .Rprofile 文件，但我不想这样做。

checkpoint::checkpoint("2018-06-01")

library(foreach)
library(doFuture)
library(future)

doFuture::registerDoFuture()
future::plan("multisession")

l <- .libPaths()

# Code to run in parallel does not make much sense of course but I wanted to keep it simple.
res <- foreach::foreach(
  x = unique(iris$Species),
  lib.path = l
) %dopar% {
  .libPaths(lib.path)
  stringr::str_c(x, "_")
}

{ 中的错误：任务 2 失败 - “没有名为 'stringr' 的包”

未来包的作者在这里。

将主 R 进程的库路径作为全局变量传递libs并为每个使用的工作人员设置它就.libPaths(libs)足够了；

## Use CRAN checkpoint from 2018-07-24 to get future (>= 1.9.0) [1],
## otherwise the below stdout won't be relayed back to the master
## R process, but settings .libPaths() does also work in older
## versions of the future package.
## [1] https://cran.microsoft.com/snapshot/2018-07-24/web/packages/future
checkpoint::checkpoint("2018-07-24")
stopifnot(packageVersion("future") >= "1.9.0")

libs <- .libPaths()
print(libs)
### [1] "/home/hb/.checkpoint/2018-07-24/lib/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.5.1"
### [2] "/home/hb/.checkpoint/R-3.5.1"                                 
### [3] "/usr/lib/R/library"

library(foreach)

doFuture::registerDoFuture()
future::plan("multisession")

res <- foreach::foreach(x = unique(iris$Species)) %dopar% {
  ## Use the same library paths as the master R session
  .libPaths(libs)

  cat(sprintf("Library paths used by worker (PID %d):\n", Sys.getpid()))
  cat(sprintf(" - %s\n", sQuote(.libPaths())))

  stringr::str_c(x, "_")
}

###  - ‘/home/hb/.checkpoint/2018-07-24/lib/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.5.1’
###   - ‘/home/hb/.checkpoint/R-3.5.1’
###   - ‘/usr/lib/R/library’
### Library paths used by worker (PID 9394):

### Library paths used by worker (PID 9412):

###   - ‘/usr/lib/R/library’

str(res)
### List of 3
###  $ : chr "setosa_"
###  $ : chr "versicolor_"
###  $ : chr "virginica_"

仅供参考，在未来的路线图中，可以更轻松地将库路径传递给工作人员。
