Add pixi to PATH

Description

pixi_to_path() checks if pixi’s installation directory is in the current PATH and adds it if not found. The function automatically detects the operating system and uses the appropriate default installation path for each platform.

Usage

pixi_to_path()

Details

The function checks if the pixi binary directory is already present in the PATH environment variable. If not found, it appends the default installation directory:

  • macOS/Linux: ~/.pixi/bin

  • Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.pixi\bin

This modification only affects the current R session.

Value

Invisibly returns NULL. The function is called for its side effects of modifying the PATH environment variable.
