Changelog

The package is now on CRAN, so to install simply type:

install.packages("dartR")
library(dartR)

It also includes now a nice tutorial (called vignette in R terminology). Once installed type:

browseVignettes("dartR")

to access it.

To install the latest package manually follow the description below:

The installation of the package might not run smoothly, as it requires additional bioconductor packages that need to be installed. To install the packages and all dependencies copy paste the script below into your R-console. (If you are lucky it simply installs all packages without any error message and you are done):

install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install(c("SNPRelate", "qvalue"))
install_github("green-striped-gecko/dartR")
library(dartR)

The BiocManager package is not available for R<3.5, hence you may need to use the following code:

source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
BiocInstaller::biocLite(c("SNPRelate", "qvalue"))
install.packages("dartR")
library(dartR)

Unfortunately sometimes to us unkown reasons R is not able to install all dependent packages and breaks with an error message. Then you need to install packages "by hand". For example you may find:

ERROR: dependency 'seqinr' is not available for package 'dartR'
removing 'C:/Program Files/R/library/dartR'
Error: Command failed (1)

Then you need to install the package seqinr via:

install.packages("seqinr")

And run the last line of code again:

install_github("green-striped-gecko/dartR")

This "game" of install.packages() and install_github() [the last two steps] might need to be repeated for additional packages as for whatever reason R does no longer install all packages (if anyone could tell me a way to fix this, it would be highly appreciated). Finally you should be able to run:

install_github("green-striped-gecko/dartR")
library(dartR)

without any error (warnings if you are using an older version of R are okay) and you are done.

In case you want to have the latest version of the package you can download the developer version via:

install_github("green-striped-gecko/dartR@dev")

!!Please note the here it is quite likely that some functions might not work, or even the install might break with an error.!!

Have fun working with dartR! Any issues you encounter please use the issues tab on github or contact us via email under [email protected]
