Diagnose optional spatial backend installation and exported API status. The function is read-only: it never installs or updates a package. Actual method calls remain the authoritative runtime check for system libraries, S4 registration, and data-specific requirements.
Usage
SpatialBackendStatus(
backend = NULL,
method = NULL,
api_check = TRUE,
refresh = FALSE,
envname = NULL,
conda = "auto"
)Arguments
- backend
Optional backend identifier filter.
- method
Optional registered spatial method filter.
- api_check
Whether to inspect required namespace exports.
- refresh
Whether to refresh the session-local diagnostic cache.
