Package installation issue

[liuliuball45]

I am trying to install the package through R studio.

I used the command below and got error message about encoding....wondering is there anything i need to do with my R environment setup?? Thanks if you can help.

[JohnCoene]

Thank you for reporting this!

Yes indeed, probably the encoding due to chinese characters. I have moved that to datasets so it passes all checks, I have tried myself, removing package and reinstalling from github and worked fine. Let me know.

remotes::install_github("JohnCoene/coronavirus")

[JoeFernando]

still no luck. It installs but no luck thereafter:

[JohnCoene]

Re there is no package called ‘curl’, did you try to install the missing package curl?

install.packages("curl")

[JoeFernando]

thanks....the crawl works. App failed:

run_app(virus)

This is what I see in the console

[JohnCoene]

Thank you very much for your patience Joseph, it seem it is because you're on the previous version of shiny 1.3.0. I have added this to the DESCRIPTION. Reinstall the package should update shiny and subsequently work.

remotes::install_github("JohnCoene/coronavirus")

Sorry again, let me know if this works.

[JoeFernando]

it worked!!! Thanks John.

[JohnCoene]

Not at all, thanks to you for all your patience and reporting this!

[cdriveraus]

I am getting a similar issue, presumably due to character set:
Error : (converted from warning) C:/Users/Driver/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpI9Mnbw/R.INSTALL28a835e031ba/coronavirus/man/api.Rd:22: unknown macro '\Â'

[JohnCoene]

Sorry encoding issue, could please try again? and let me know.

[cdriveraus]

Yep no more warnings, fixed.

[JohnCoene]

Thank you for reporting this.
