Overview

About

Maintained by Chi LiuCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Transform output files of some tools to the 'microtable' object of 'microtable' class in 'microeco' package. The 'microtable' class is the basic class in 'microeco' package and is necessary for the downstream microbial community data analysis.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)

install.packages("file2meco", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ChiLiubio/file2meco")

Development version from ChiLiubio/file2meco. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-file2meco

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make
