Is there any interest in launching a pkgdown site for this package? I am willing to implement this.

That would be fine. I'll take an initial crack at this and hand it over to you if I run into trouble/give up.

Excellent, thank you!

I'm going to leave this open until it's done ...

Partly working.

  • no GitHub actions machinery yet
  • vignette missing
  • README photo duplicated/maybe not working yet?

Ah, sorry about that!

I can take a look at it tomorrow.

I'm running into trouble with "glmmADMB" - it will not install (see failed run). Any idea what is going on with that?

glmmADMB is only available via a drat repository (listed in the DESCRIPTION file).

This works for me locally:

install.packages("glmmADMB", repos = c(getOption("repos")["CRAN"], "https://bbolker.github.io/drat"))

(might need to add type = "source", hard-code the CRAN repo if it's not specified, etc.)

Does that give you enough info to add the machinery to GH actions?

No that works locally, but it doesn't solve the gh action, but I think I found the solution.

I solved the glmm ADMB issue (by telling the workflow to ignore it), but now having another mystery issue with the build. I've asked the Rstudio community for help

No clue. I guess the v2 version of the actions is fairly new and may still have rough edges ... ?? Thanks for working on this ...

I think this is the problem, which gives me some ideas on how to proceed.

seems like pak is a little flaky these days ...

I'm taking a bit of a break from this because the documentation is frustratingly slim and the help a bit terse. I'll come back to it (and maybe by then, the bug will be fixed). Nevertheless, thanks for the getting the documentation site up and running; it's helpful to be able to browse the functions so easily.
