This is an empty repo to initialize an R project for class at by ODSC. Both Part I and Part II (yes, this is Part II even though it says Part III on the site) will work out of this repo.
Please follow all instructions to set up your environment for the training. Skimming the instructions often leads to errors, so be sure to read everything.
This is just like installing any other program.
In order to get the most out of class you have to be working in this project. There are three ways to get this project on your computer.
Choose one of these methods.
- Clone the repo using the command line
- Clone the repo using the RStudio GUI
- Use the
{usethis}
package to download and unzip the repo
Please only follow one of these methods. Attempting more than one can lead to errors.
This assumes you have git
installed.[1]
Run this command in the command line or shell.[2]
git clone https://github.com/jaredlander/odsceurope2020.git
Then open the odsceurope2020.Rproj
file.
This assumes you have git
installed.
Click File > New Project
.
Click Version Control
.
Click Git
.
Choose a folder in the Create project as a subdirectory of
field.
Paste https://github.com/jaredlander/odsceurope2020
[3] in the
Repository URL
field.
Run these commands in the R console.
# install usethis package
install.packages('usethis')
# get the repo
newProject <- usethis::use_course('https://github.com/jaredlander/odsceurope2020/archive/master.zip')
Be sure to select the positive prompts such as yes
, yeah
, etc.
This will open the project in a new RStudio window.
After any of these methods you should have a new RStudio project called
odsceurope2020
or odsceurope2020-master
. You can see this in the top
right of RStudio (the name in the image may be different).
Setting up all of the needed packages[4] and data will be handled by running the following line of code in the R console.
source('prep/setup.r')
If asked to compile from source, select no
.
Otherwise, answer y
to any questions asked in the terminal.
That’s everything. You should now do all of your work for this class in this project.
If you are still having trouble setting up the project and getting everything installed, sign up for an RStudio.cloud account, contact the TA and ask for access to the class project.[5]
