Installation from official source about microviz HOT 6 CLOSED

Another question,

If I understand correctly the ps_extra object is basically a phyloseq object with some extra data, which consists mainly of the string for the methods & nromalization .. used, isn't it?

Hi Silas

Glad you're finding microViz useful :)

I hope eventually to submit to cran, but that might still take me a while.

I've just set up an R universe profile which provides binaries installable in a very similar way to cran. Hopefully this works for you! Let me know if not?

It's an S3 object that's basically a list containing a phyloseq and various other pieces, including a log of transformations applied but also other stuff like a distance matrix or ordination object if computed

I'm relatively new to R. But do you think it would be possible to ask the authors of phyloseq to allow for additional storage of list like data. In this way your package could be even beter integated with existing pipelines. Just an idea.

Probably the best idea would be to extend the phyloseq S4 class, adding additional slots. I'm unlikely to have time to implement that kind of fundamental change any time soon though unfortunately

original issue resolved for now by adding R Universe install instructions to readme
