Installation issues
Check package dependencies:
The movedesign
package requires many non-default
packages. If you are met with errors during installation/updates, try
restarting your R session (in the RStudio
menu bar, this is
Session
> Restart R
; or close and re-open
R
) and reinstalling the package through:
remotes::install_github("ecoisilva/movedesign", dependencies = TRUE)
Failed to install ‘unknown package’ from GitHub:
Step 1: Generate a GitHub personal access token with the following command in the RStudio console:
usethis::create_github_token()
This will take you to GitHub to generate a token. Configure the token (or just scroll down and generate it using the default settings) and copy it to your clipboard.
Step 2: Save the personal access token in your R environment. Return to RStudio and enter:
usethis::edit_r_environ()
in the console. This opens a new window in RStudio. When that window opens, write:
GITHUB_PAT="GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"
where GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN
is the token (a
string of letters and numbers) you just copied from GitHub.
Step 3: Save this file, close it, and restart R.
After that, you should be able to install movedesign
through the usual command:
remotes::install_github("ecoisilva/movedesign", dependencies = TRUE)
