Overview

About

Maintained by Enoch Kang1 releasesCRAN page ↗

Trial sequential analysis emerges as an important method in data synthesis realm. It is necessary to integrate pooling methods and sequential analysis coherently, as discussed in the Chapter by Thomas, J., Askie, L.M., Berlin, J.A., Elliott, J.H., Ghersi, D., Simmonds, M., Takwoingi, Y., Tierney, J.F. and Higgins, J.P. (2019). "Prospective approaches to accumulating evidence". In Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions (eds J.P.T. Higgins, J. Thomas, J. Chandler, M. Cumpston, T. Li, M.J. Page and V.A. Welch). doi:10.1002/9781119536604.ch22.

Install

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

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/smiles/smiles_0.1-0.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "smiles_0.1-0.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 (0.1-0) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

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-smiles

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-smiles

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