从 public github repro 安装 R 包时出现错误 404

Question

我正在尝试从 github (https://github.com/KTMD-plant/gaRdenbox)

安装 gaRdenbox 包

但是当我运行

install_github("KTMD-plant/gaRdenbox")

它returns

Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub: HTTP error 404. Not Found Did you spell the repo owner (KTMD-plant) and repo name (gaRdenbox) correctly? -If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.

据我所知，repro 是 public。你知道这里的问题是什么吗？

Answer 1

这是包 gaRdenbox 中的错误，因为文件 DESCRIPTION 是 'missing'，因为只有文件 Description.

您可以通过分叉包并通过重命名来更改文件来测试它 -- 我就是这样做的 in this fork in my repo。现在我们可以按预期安装了：

edd@rob:/tmp$ installGithub.r eddelbuettel/gaRdenbox
Using github PAT from envvar GITHUB_PAT
Downloading GitHub repo eddelbuettel/gaRdenbox@HEAD

✔  checking for file ‘/tmp/remotes12841a2d0cc36c/eddelbuettel-gaRdenbox-fd41a57/DESCRIPTION’ ...
─  preparing ‘gaRdenbox’:
✔  checking DESCRIPTION meta-information
─  checking for LF line-endings in source and make files and shell scripts
─  checking for empty or unneeded directories
─  building ‘gaRdenbox_0.0.1.0.tar.gz’

edd@rob:/tmp$

（其中 installGitHub.r 是一个 simple wrapper for the command-line from my littler 包）。您可以忽略 PAT 消息；由于其他原因，我的环境中有一个。

我已经在上游仓库提交了 PR。
