I can not find how to replicate the internal CRAN test for the URLs healthy.
It is important that this test is run only on the Debian winbuilder (yes, debian under winbuilder). As this test is not run on the Windows machine so we could NOT use the https://win-builder.r-project.org/upload.aspx website service to replicate it.
The example error message from the CRAN server, as the website was moved.
Such message is producing the NOTE so the package is not automatically processed.
Found the following (possibly) invalid URLs:
URL: http://blog.obeautifulcode.com/R/How-R-Searches-And-Finds-Stuff/
From: inst/doc/tinyverse.html
Status: Error
Message: Could not resolve host: blog.obeautifulcode.com
Edit:
There is a useful source with CRAN policy in this area https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/URL_checks.html
(Promoting comment to answer as suggested...)
The test code has been pulled out of R itself and made into a package you can install. Other than that it is of course part of any (recent enough) R or R-devel build.
FWIW I also wrapped this into a convenience script I call all the time on my systems.
I am trying to install the ggpattern package from GitHub (https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/ggpattern/versions/0.2.0)
I've reinstalled R, followed the all steps according to the site, also tried
remotes::install_github("coolbutuseless/ggpattern", force = TRUE)
But I still get:
Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub:
HTTP error 401.
Bad credentials

I'm working on R version 4.1.2 (newest according to me) on Windows.
Do you have any idea what is the issue here?
You need to check if you have a personal access token set in your environment. For example, when I have a Git project, I set a personal access token. However, I set this in the project environment, so that it isn't any issues outside of that environment.
To see if there is one assigned:
Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT")
If there is one set, write it down (you may need that in the future).
To remove it, so you can install the GitHub package:
Sys.unsetenv("GITHUB_PAT")
I am trying to install an R package from an enterprise github account
devtools::install_github(
repo = "<owner>/<repo>",
host = "github.<org_name>.com/api/v3/",
auth_token = <my_github_pat>
)
I get this error message
Error: Failed to install '<repo>' from GitHub: HTTP error 404. Not Found Did you spell the repo owner ('<owner>') and repo name ('<repo>') correctly? - If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.
I have the correct spellings, and I think that I must have the required permissions because it's actually my repo: I can push and pull from the repo just fine. I am doing the install_github() as a test case so colleagues can install my package, but I can't make sense of this error message.
Literally just needed to drop the last "/" in the host string and this worked. SMH
devtools::install_github(
repo = "<owner>/<repo>",
host = "github.<org_name>.com/api/v3",
auth_token = <my_github_pat>
)
I'm trying to use git from within RStudio to send my project to github. I'm using HTTPS authentication and with this, I can create repository(locally and remotely) and commit changes. However, when i check my github, only repository is created but my R files not found.
This is what i tried
library(usethis)
edit_r_environ()
GITHUB_PAT = 'xxxx...X' #restart R session
use_github(protocol = 'https', auth_token = Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT")) #created a protocol with Access
token generated from PAT
#Are title and description ok?
1: No way
2: Definitely
3: Absolutely not
#i typed 2 and entered
After the above code, repository was created on github but my R codes are missing. I wanted to use push in git connection but the push/pull was greyed out.
Am aware of other approaches but help using the usethis package in R would be apreciated
How can I get this code correct?
library("data.world")
file_df <- download_file_as_data_frame(
"jonloyens/an-intro-to-dataworld-dataset",
"fatal-police-shootings-data.csv")
Error in auth_token() : API authentication must be configured before any functions can be invoked. To configure, use dwapi::configure().
So to illustrate why I wrote that comment:

Description: High-level tools for working with 'data.world' data sets. 'data.world' is
a platform where you can find interesting data, store and showcase your own
data and data projects, and find and collaborate with other members. In
addition to exploring, querying and charting data on the data.world site, you
can access data via 'API' endpoints and integrations. Use this package to
access, query and explore data sets, and to publish your insights. Visit
<https://data.world>, for additional information.

Every package accepted by CRAN needs a DESCRIPTION file and that shows how you can access from your console. It's a text file with specific requirements. One of the functions is to point you to other packages that are needed for successful functioning as well as external sources of code or in this case data. You should, therefore, go to the value for the "URL:" line, ie. https://github.com/datadotworld/data.world-r and educate yourself. Other times you may need to install System packages, although this particular package does not list any.
Documentation for dwapi::configure() can be found in the Configuration section of that README on Github.
In short, requests to the data.world API require a user token (even a free user token), and the error indicates that a token is not being sent properly.
