About

Maintained by Hendrik SchultheisCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Changes in 2.4.4

file-writing functions, examples and tests now use tempfile()/tempdir()
removed install_app()'s location default
made the Clarion example runnable

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

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

install.packages("wilson", 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("loosolab/wilson")

Development version from loosolab/wilson. 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-wilson

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
