Hi list members, I am having a problem installing vignettes for my asremlPlus package (https://github.com/briencj/asremlPlus - see VIgnettes branch) and have run into a brick wall in my efforts to solve it. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
The basic problem is that the R.rsp package cannot be found by loadVignetteBuilder when checking or building the package. Here are the details. I am running R 3.5.1 under Windows 10. I have compiled the Rmd sources to pdf files and I need to incorporate the pdfs without rebuilding them. The reasons are that they rely on having a package that is not available from a public R repo, namely asreml, and the R code take too much time to run on the CRAN servers. To deal with this I have tried to use the package R.rsp. Following the instructions, for example for WheatVignette.pdf, I have included the WheatVignette.pdf.asis with contents %\VignetteIndexEntry{Wheat data: a spatial analysis example} %\VignetteEngine{R.rsp::asis} %\VignetteAuthor{Chris Brien} %\VignetteKeyword{asremlPlus} I have the following lines in the DESCRIPTION file: Suggests: testthat, lattice, emmeans, lmerTest, pbkrtest, R.rsp Enhances: asreml VignetteBuilder: R.rsp When I run the following devtools::check call on the package devtools::check("asremlPlus", manual=TRUE, check_dir="D:/Analyses/R", document=FALSE, args="--as-cran") I get the following error message - saving partial Rd database (7.6s) Error in loadVignetteBuilder(pkgdir, TRUE) : vignette builder 'R.rsp' not found Execution halted Error in run(bin, args = real_cmdargs, stdout_line_callback = real_callback(stdout), : System command error To check the availability of R.rsp I did the following: > .libPaths();find.package("R.rsp") [1] "D:/Analyses/R library" "D:/Analyses/R oldpkg" [3] "C:/Program Files/StatSoft/R/R-3.5.1/library" [1] "D:/Analyses/R library/R.rsp" I also note that in my HOME directory I have an .Renviron file with the following line: R_LIBS_USER="D:\\Analyses\\R library" Cheers, Chris Chris Brien | Adjunct Associate Professor in Statistics ----- School of Information Technology & Mathematical Sciences University of South Australia GPO Box 2471 ADELAIDE 5001 South Australia Phone: +61 8 8302 5535 Fax: +61 8 8302 5785 Email: chris.br...@unisa.edu.au WEB page: <http://people.unisa.edu.au/Chris.Brien> CRICOS No 00121B ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
