Resolving installation issues

Check package dependencies:

The movedesign package requires many non-default R packages. If you are met with errors during installation/updates, try restarting your R session (in the RStudio menu bar, this is Session > Restart R; or close and re-open R). Then, reinstall the package using:

remotes::install_github("ecoisilva/movedesign", dependencies = TRUE) 

You may also need to explicitly install the fontawesome package:

install.packages("fontawesome")

Resolving “failed to install ‘unknown package’ from GitHub”:

If you see this error when installing from GitHub, follow these steps:

Step 1: Generate a GitHub personal access token with the following command in the RStudio or R console:

usethis::create_github_token()

This will take you to GitHub to generate a token. Configure the token (or just scroll down and generate it using the default settings) and copy it to your clipboard (it is a string of letters and numbers).

Step 2: Save the personal access token in your R environment. Back in R, enter:

usethis::edit_r_environ()

This will open the .Renviron file in a new RStudio window. Add the following line to the file:

GITHUB_PAT="GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"

Replace GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN with the token you just copied from GitHub.

Step 3: Save this file, close it, and restart R. After that, you should be able to install movedesign through the usual command:

remotes::install_github("ecoisilva/movedesign", dependencies = TRUE)
