How to use nvim with R

This is a way to standardise how I should install/update R and bioconductor
while using nvim with jalvesaq-Nvim-R

UBUNTU/DEBIAN ENVIROMENT

Current folders:

In main R directory:

R
└── x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library
    ├── 4.2
    ├── 4.3.1-Bioc-3.17
    └── 4.3.1-Bioc-3.18

In .bashrc I have this:

# alias for R if it exists
if [ -f /usr/bin/R ] ; then
    export R_LIBS_USER='~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.3.1-Bioc-3.17'

    alias R='R_LIBS_USER=~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.3.1-Bioc-3.17/ R'
fi

Of course it is not the best options as I have to update every time the version...

Sparce configuration files for nvim:

.config/nvim/lua/core

-- R plugin
vim.keymap.set("v", "<C-e>", "<Plug>RDSendSelection", { desc = '[C]trl [e] send selected' })
vim.keymap.set("n", "<C-e>", "<Plug>RDSendLine", { desc = '[C]trl [e] send line' })

.config/nvim/lua/core

vim.api.nvim_set_var('R_auto_start' , 1)
vim.api.nvim_set_var('R_objbr_auto_start' , 1)

.config/nvim/lua/core

  use ( 'jalvesaq/Nvim-R' )
  use ( 'jalvesaq/cmp-nvim-r' )
  use ( 'jalvesaq/cmp-zotcite' )

The first time I installed R I followed the guide from here I put the first steps here in case something happen to the link, and I also saved it on the wayback machine:

By Lisa Tagliaferri

sudo apt install dirmngr --install-recommends
sudo apt install software-properties-common
sudo apt install apt-transport-https
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 'E19F5F87128899B192B1A2C2AD5F960A256A04AF'
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/debian buster-cran35/'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install r-base

Then I install the Bioconductor version in my main user on the specific folder that has been set in .bashrc

R
install.packages("Bioconductor", )
q()
mkdir ~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.3.1-Bioc-3.18
R
BiocManager::install(version= "3.18", lib = "/home/user6/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/4.3.1-Bioc-3.18/")
q()

After the installation of all the packages from the previous version it should be checked if colorout works, as some times it doesn't and it needs to be reinstalled
