\arguments{
\item{dependencies}{Which dependencies do you want to check?
Can be a character vector (selecting from "Depends", "Imports",
"LinkingTo", "Suggests", or "Enhances"), or a logical vector.
\code{TRUE} is shorthand for "Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo" and
"Suggests". \code{NA} is shorthand for "Depends", "Imports" and "LinkingTo"
and is the default. \code{FALSE} is shorthand for no dependencies (i.e.
just check this package, not its dependencies).
The value "soft" means the same as \code{TRUE}, "hard" means the same as \code{NA}.
You can also specify dependencies from one or more additional fields,
common ones include:
\itemize{
\item Config/Needs/website - for dependencies used in building the pkgdown site.
\item Config/Needs/coverage for dependencies used in calculating test coverage.
}}
\item{upgrade}{Should package dependencies be upgraded? One of "default", "ask", "always", or "never". "default"
respects the value of the \code{R_REMOTES_UPGRADE} environment variable if set,
and falls back to "ask" if unset. "ask" prompts the user for which out of
date packages to upgrade. For non-interactive sessions "ask" is equivalent
to "always". \code{TRUE} and \code{FALSE} are also accepted and correspond to
"always" and "never" respectively.}
\item{force}{Force installation, even if the remote state has not changed
since the previous install.}
\item{quiet}{If \code{TRUE}, suppress output.}
\item{build}{If \code{TRUE} build the package before installing.}
\item{build_opts}{Options to pass to \verb{R CMD build}, only used when \code{build} is \code{TRUE}.}
\item{build_manual}{If \code{FALSE}, don't build PDF manual ('--no-manual').}
\item{build_vignettes}{If \code{FALSE}, don't build package vignettes ('--no-build-vignettes').}
\item{repos}{A character vector giving repositories to use.}
\item{type}{Type of package to \code{update}.}
\item{...}{Other arguments passed on to \code{\link[utils:install.packages]{utils::install.packages()}}.}
}
\description{
This:
\enumerate{
\item downloads source bundle
\item decompresses & checks that it's a package
\item adds metadata to DESCRIPTION
\item calls install
}
}
\details{
It uses the additional S3 generic functions to work. Writing methods for
these functions would allow 3rd party packages to define custom remotes.
