I was following the installation instructions for Juno specified here: https://github.com/JunoLab/atom-julia-client/tree/master/manual
I ran the following commands:
Pkg.update()
Pkg.add("Atom")
using Atom
Then, when I open up Atom, I tried to look for the language-julia package, but Atom is unable to find anything called that. What could I be doing wrong?
As per your comments, the search was being carried out in the Packages tab of the settings menu which will only show packages that are currently installed. If you perform the same search from the Install tab the packages show up as expected.

To preface this question I am coming from the perspective of an absolute beginner, trying to learn Julia. I was recommended to try the SciML tutorial and in trying to install it have fallen at the first hurdle.
So far I have:
Installed Julia
Installed Anaconda
Installed Jupyter Notebook
Added "git" through the Anaconda console
Added "IJulia"
From here I have been able to open Jupyter through Anaconda and access Julia 1.7.3 within it. Following this I attempted to follow the instructions on the SciML website for getting started with the tutorial, which is to enter this code:
using Pkg
pkg"add https://github.com/SciML/SciMLTutorials.jl"
using SciMLTutorials
SciMLTutorials.open_notebooks()
However, the second line is throwing this error
invalid git HEAD (reference 'refs/heads/master' not found)
I have also tried installing the package through the Julia console, but recieve the same error.
I am at a loss of how to proceed - I can't find anything in the documentation that suggests why this may be or how to proceed - since I am so new to this I suspect I may have missed a step in my installation process, but can't figure out where that may be.
I am trying to install pacakage BTYDPlus (https://github.com/mplatzer/BTYDplus)
When I enter this command
devtools::install_github("mplatzer/BTYDplus", dependencies=TRUE)
It prompts me to install
Building R package from source requires installation of additional build tools. Do you want to install the additional tools now ?
So, I went ahead and installed. I can see a folder RbuildTools in my C drive now. However
find r_tools()
#returns TRUE
However when I try to install using Devtools , I get the same error again. I also tried assigning the path of build tools as per some suggestions but even that doesn't work
Sys.setenv(PATH="%PATH%;C:\\RBuildTools\\3.2\\gcc-4.6.3\\bin;C:\\RBuildTools\\3.2\\bin")
This, question, is, asked, over, and, over, and, over,
on the R-sig-finance mailing list, but I do not think it has been asked on stackoverflow.
It goes like this:
Where can I obtain the latest version of package XYZ that is hosted on R-forge? I tried to install it with install.packages, but this is what happened:
> install.packages("XYZ",repos="http://r-forge.r-project.org")
Warning message: package ‘XYZ’ is not available (for R version 2.15.0)
Looking on the R-forge website for XYZ, I see that the package failed to build.
Therefore, there is no link to download the source. Is there any other way
to get the source code? Once I get the source code, how can I turn that into a
package that I can load with library("XYZ")?
R-Forge may fail to build a package for a few different reasons. It could be that
the documentation has not been updated to reflect recent changes in the code. Or,
it could be that some of the dependencies were not available at build time.
You can checkout the source code using svn. First, search for the project on the
R-Forge website and go to the project home page -- for example http://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/returnanalytics/
Click the SCM link to get to a page like this http://r-forge.r-project.org/scm/?group_id=579
This page will tell you the command to use to checkout the project. In this case you get
This project's SVN repository can be checked out through anonymous access with the following command(s).
svn checkout svn://svn.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/returnanalytics/
If you are on Windows, you probably want to download and install TortoiseSVN
Once you have installed TortoiseSVN, you can right click in a Windows Explorer window and select
"SVN checkout". In the "URL of repository:" field, enter everything except the
"svn checkout " part of the command that you found on R-Forge. In this case, you'd
enter "svn://svn.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/returnanalytics/".
When you click OK, the project will be downloaded into the current directory.
If you are on a UNIX-alike system (or if you installed the command line client tools
when you installed TortoiseSVN for Windows, which is not the default), you can
type the command that R-forge gave you in your terminal (System terminal, not the R terminal)
svn checkout svn://svn.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/returnanalytics/
That will create a new directory under the current working directory that
contains all of the files in the package. In the top level of that directory
will be a subdirectory called "pkg". This particular project (returnanalytics)
contains more than one package.
ls returnanalytics/pkg
#FactorAnalytics MPO PApages PerformanceAnalytics PortfolioAnalytics
But some R-forge projects only have a single package. e.g.
svn checkout svn://svn.r-forge.r-project.org/svnroot/random/
#Checked out revision 14.
ls random/pkg
#DESCRIPTION inst man NAMESPACE R
Now that you have a local copy all of the code, if you would like to be able to
install the package, you have to build it first.
A WORD OF CAUTION: Since R-Forge failed to build the package, there is a good chance
that there are problems with the package. Therefore, if you just build it, you may find
that some things do not work as expected. In particular, it is likely that there
is missing or incomplete documentation.
If you are on a UNIX-alike system, the package can be built and installed relatively easily. For a multi-package project like returnanalytics, if you want to install, e.g. the
PortfolioAnalytics package, you can do it like this
R --vanilla CMD INSTALL --build returnanalytics/pkg/PortfolioAnalytics
"PortfolioAnalytics" is the name of the directory that contains the package that
you want to build/install. For a single-package project, you can build and install like
this
R --vanilla CMD INSTALL --build random/pkg
If you would like to build/install a package on Windows, see this question and follow the two links that #JoshuaUlrich provided
More information can be found in R Installation and Administration, the R-Forge User Manual, and the SVN manual.
If (and only if) you have the appropriate toolchain for your OS, then this may succeed:
# First download source file to your working directory
# As an example use browser to download pkg:partykit from:
# http://download.r-forge.r-project.org/src/contrib/partykit_1.1-2.tar.gz
# Move to working directory
# Or in the case of returnanalytics (which is a bundle of packages):
# http://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=579 and download the tar.gz (source)
# Then in R:
install.packages( "partykit_1.1-2.tar.gz", repo=NULL, type="source")
# for the first of the ReturnAnalytics packages:
install.packages( "Dowd_0.11.tar.gz", repo=NULL, type="source")
These direction should be "cross-platform". I'm not sure the directions in the accepted answer are applicable to Macs (OSX). (I later confirmed that they do "work" on a Mac but found the process more involved that what I suggested above. They do result in a directory that do contain the packages in a form that should succeed with R --vanilla CMD INSTALL --build pathToEachPackageSeparately)
It is also possible that the current version of the package you are trying to install requires a newer version of R, for example, you may see error like:
"ERROR: this R is version 2.15.0, package 'PerformanceAnalytics' requires R >= 3.0.0"
then you can try to update your R
or, if you are facing the same situation with me, which is trying to use pqR (currently using R version 2.15), you can find the out-of-date achieved package here:
http://cran.at.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/PerformanceAnalytics/
You can get here from R-Forge packages page -> "Stable Release: Get PerformanceAnalytics 1.4.3541 from CRAN" -> Old sources: PerformanceAnalytics archive
for example, you will find package PerformanceAnalytics version 1.1.0 just requires R >= 2.14
Good luck
Alternatively, you can install the particular package from GitHub, if it has a repo at GitHub.
I ran install.packages('ggfortify'), and got
Warning message: “package ‘ggfortify’ is not available (for R version
3.3.2)”
ggfortify was the GitHub repo for the same package.
The devtools library allows you to install a package from GitHub directly with install_github('username/repo').
library(devtools)
install_github('sinhrks/ggfortify')
I am not able to upload arules package
Below is the following command I am using
library(arules)
I have downloaded the file from http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/arules/index.html still it is not able to upload it.
Can anyone help me out
install.packages("arules")
pls. find below GUI - Screen for Rcmdr Package
Open RStudio.
Go to the “Packages” tab and click on “Install Packages”. The first time you’ll do this you’ll be prompted to choose a CRAN mirror. R will download all necessary files from the server you select here. Choose the location closest to you (probably “USA CA 1” or “USA CA 2”, which are housed at UC Berkeley and UCLA, respectively).
Install packages in Windows
Start typing “Rcmdr” until you see it appear in a list. Select the first option (or finish typing Rcmdr), ensure that “Install dependencies” is checked, and click “Install”.
Install Rcmdr in Windows
Wait while all the parts of the R Commander package are installed.
I had a similar problem. I solve it using
#install and load devtools to install directly from github
install("devtools")
library("devtools")
install_github("mhahsler/arules")
If you want to install "arules" package, you may not be able to install it just using the code below.
<< install.packages("arules") >>
follow the steps in order to solve problem:
go to the package's address and download it manually.you will find it in the link below:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/arules/index.html
If you are using R-Studio just install that package you have got, by "tools" menu in your IDE (R-studio)
Tools->Install packages->...
brows the file in your computer and install it.
go to the command line and using library(arules) function test the package. If there is still an error it could belong to incompatibility of the package with the version of R (Not R-Studio or any other IDE that you are using), just upgrade R and try installation period again.
I had a related problem where I could not install arules after being able to successfully install many libraries. I finally learned that I needed to update to 3.4 for arules. In order to do that, I followed duckmayr's answer HERE. Then, I was able to install arules with no issues, and it worked.
