To install packages from github, first install and load the devtools package:

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)

Then use install_github.

install_github("Rmongo", "tc")

Though in this case, Rmongo is on CRAN, so you can just do:

install.packages("RMongo") //name of package is case sensitive

  • So I have to write the queries in R Gui or R studio?? – manishankar Nov 17 '14 at 12:32
  • Because when I am writing the 1st command i.e install.packages("devtools") in R Gui it shows the below errors i.e "Warning: unable to access index for repository http://ftp.iitm.ac.in/cran/bin/windows/contrib/3.1" and "Warning: unable to access index for repository http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/3.1" – manishankar Nov 17 '14 at 12:43
  • It doesn't matter if you use R GUI or RStudio or any other IDE. That warning occurs when R cannot access the internet (as well as when CRAN is offline). Do you have internet access on your machine? Are you on a corporate network where access is being blocked? In the former case, um, plug in the network cable. In the latter case, try `setInternet2()` (Windows only), or speak to your network admin. – Richie Cotton Nov 18 '14 at 07:16

    The `install_github` call failed to me (RStudio 1.1.436, R 3.4.4), I had to switch it to `install_github("tc/Rmongo")` – Matt Mar 02 '19 at 16:08
