Overview

About

An analysis platform for metagenomics combining specialized tools and workflows, easy handling of the BIOM format, and transparent access to MG-RAST resources. Integrates easily with other R packages and non-R software.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/matR/matR_0.9.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "matR_0.9.1.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.9.1) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

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

Development version from MG-RAST/matR. Installs pak first if it is not already available.
