Install packages for Statistics Services

Install packages for Statistics Services

Using install.packages() when a special package is needed to run code in TERR under TSSS. Launch the TERR engine included in the TSSS installation, which can be found in a path similar to:

     C:\Program Files\TIBCO\statsvcsXX\TSSSServiceName\engines\Terr\bin\TERR.exe

Run the install.packages() function with the lib= argument set, such as:

     install.packages("packageName", lib = .Library)

This will install the package in the expected location under TSSS.  To confirm, run the following test URL in TSSS:

     http://<servername>:<port>/<TSSSServiceName>/api/v8/function/utils/installed.packages

For example, if the servername is abcde, it is listening on port 8080, and it has a TSSSServiceName of SplusServer, the test URL will look like this:

     http://abcde:8080/SplusServer/api/v8/function/utils/installed.packages
