Overview

About

Maintained by Tom August7 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Reproducible and remixable species distribution modelling. The package reads user submitted modules from an online repository, runs full species distribution modelling workflows and returns output that is fully reproducible. For examples and detailed discussion refer to: N.Golding et al. (2017) 'The zoon r package for reproducible and shareable species distribution modelling'. Methods in Ecology and Evolution. doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12858. The package 'SDMTools' is used for testing and, though this package is archived, you can access it here if needed, https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/SDMTools/.

Install

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

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/zoon/zoon_0.6.5.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "zoon_0.6.5.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 (0.6.5) 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("zoonproject/zoon")

Development version from zoonproject/zoon. 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-zoon

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-zoon

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