Overview

About

Maintained by Matthew L. Fidler6 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides the random number generation (in parallel) needed for 'rxode2' (Wang, Hallow and James (2016) doi:10.1002/psp4.12052) and 'nlmixr2' (Fidler et al (2019) doi:10.1002/psp4.12445). This split will reduce computational burden of recompiling 'rxode2'.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/rxode2random/rxode2random_2.1.1.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "rxode2random_2.1.1.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 (2.1.1) 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("nlmixr2/rxode2random")

Development version from nlmixr2/rxode2random. 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-rxode2random

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-rxode2random

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
