When I run renv::init() the package source is unknown.

renv infers a package's source based on its DESCRIPTION file, which (for custom remotes) is usually annotated post-hoc by the install function itself. I suspect install_git() is not annotating the package in one of the ways expected by renv, and so renv is unable to infer the package source.

You could try and confirm this by checking the DESCRIPTION file; e.g. a quick way to dump its contents would be:

Getting `unsupported URL protocol` when using SSH authentication with git2r::clone in R

Asked 2020-Feb-12 at 00:34

I'm trying to clone a private repo with git2r::clone via SSH (not HTTPS protocol) in R by doing

git2r::clone("git@git.server.com:team_name/repo_name.git", "~/dev/")

I am authenticated to the repo via SSH and can clone using the same URL in the command line with git clone url. I would like to avoid using https and entering my credentials into the URL.

This can happen if your git2r installation does not support SSH and therefore can't parse git SSH URLs.

You can confirm by running libgit2_features() in R.

If SSH is disabled, you will see

installing a package from private gitlab server on windows

Asked 2020-Jan-22 at 08:26

I am struggling with installing a package from a gitlab repository on a windows computer.

I found different hints but still have problems to install my package from gitlab. First of all, I generated a public and private key with puttygen.exe
The files need to be changed afterwards, I had to remove comments and stuff so they look like my the file on my unix system. So now, both public and private key files have just a single line.

I tried to install my package via devtools::install_git which takes very long and I get the error message

Answered 2020-Jan-22 at 08:26

After struggling for almost a day, I found a solution I can live with...

I first created a PAT (Personal Access Token) in my gitlab account and granted full API access. For some reason the read_only access didn't worked and I am now tired to figure out what the problem is.

After this I had still problems to install my package and for some reason, the wininet setting for downloading doesn't work.

I used the command capabilities("libcurl") to check if libcurl is available on my windows, which was and tried to overwrite wininet to libcurl by using method='libcurl' in the install function. Somehow, this was not enough so I overwrote the options variable download.file.method directly.

Initialise GitHub repo from RStudio without Using Command Line

Asked 2019-Dec-02 at 16:19

I have been tasked with testing the feasibility of a GitHub training programme in my place of work. Due to internal security, we cannot utilise the command line. I am attempting to:

Initialise a new git repository
Add files from my current R Project
Commit these staged files
Push to a newly created GitHub repo

All from RStudio using git2r functions.

Every tutorial I find online relies on the command line or looks at cloning EXISTING repositories. I cannot find any that walk through the creation of a repo from a local r project.

Workflow so far looks like this:

ANSWER

Answered 2019-Dec-02 at 16:14

The error you're getting is because you haven't provided a location for git to push to.

I think you're looking for the remotes command - https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/git2r/versions/0.23.0/topics/remotes

You can supply a local folder path to this, it doesn't have to be a remote server.

The error messages may be a bit confusing, because RStudio is asking you to install libcurl and openssl libraries for your Linux OS; for those you actually need Ubuntu packages instead of R packages.

R can't install devtools or git2r due to lack of zlib on macOS 10.12.3 and 10.12.5

Asked 2019-Jun-15 at 23:27

I am trying to install two packages in R (3.3.2): devtools and git2r. They are depending on the existence of zlib. This comes with macOS Sierra (10.12.3) and it's version 1.2.8 by default. When I'm trying to install these packages I get the error below.

I've been trying a lot of things.

directly installing via CRAN in RStudio: no effect.
trying to locate zlib on macOS: can't find zlib.
installing via R CMD INSTALL git2r: no effect.

I notice someone has a similar issue posted on GitHub: https://github.com/ropensci/git2r/issues. There is no solution yet.

Does anyone here have an idea?

Thanks!

Sander

If the zlib library is installed on your system but the git2r configuration is unable to find it, you can specify the include and lib path to zlib with:

ANSWER

Answered 2019-May-01 at 21:32

Solution...Mmm. Not really. I simply uninstalled R and all the packages, and than I reinstalled everything again. I installed R and RStudio via homebrew, following the instructions here: https://rud.is/b/2015/10/22/installing-r-on-os-x-100-homebrew-edition/.

Oddly enough: all issues disappeared.

UPDATE #1: this solution does not - obviously - work for the combination R 3.4.0 and macOS X 10.12.5. We need a solution for this issue.

UPDATE #2: I have discovered what I believe was the issue: a wrong path to the xcode command line tools.

sudo xcode-select --reset did the trick and now xcode-select -p points to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools. And which xcode-select points to /usr/bin/xcode-select. Googling I discovered that it is not needed to install Xcode through the App Store as it states on http://railsapps.github.io/xcode-command-line-tools.html:

"On earlier versions of macOS, it was more difficult to install Xcode Command Line Tools. It required a huge download of the full Xcode package from the Mac App Store or registration as an Apple developer for a smaller Command Line Tools package. Mac OS X Mavericks made installation of Xcode Command Line Tools much simpler.".
