Installation issue

[anaslaaa]

Dear Sir and Madam,

I used
install_github("ISCN/SOCDRaHR2")
to install this package, but I then received an error message "In file(file, if (append) "a" else "w") : cannot open file '/var/folders/5j/nx_vw6g97plbh5qk_syw6d300000gn/T//RtmpNjHNsE/remotes8cc9460281a0/ISCN-SOCDRaHR2-3d37602/DESCRIPTION': Permission denied"

I already installed devtools and library it.

Did I do anything wrong? Thanks for your reading.

Looks like I'm also having issue installing using install_github as well. The package has been under rapid and messy development this summer. I'll try to get the main branch cleaned up and sorted this week for you. You could always download the individual R scripts and run it locally outside of the package. What are you trying to do?

Best,

Thanks for your reply. I am not in a rush. You can take time to fix it. I am going to do some plant polysaccharide research and I am also interested in polysaccharides in soil , such as microbial extracellular polysaccharides. I read your website and hope I can get some soil carbon data before I create a full project. (Just for giving me some idea) In addition, it is fun to try a new R package. I haven't had any good project about soil carbon but hope I will be able to work with you in the future.

Best,
Winnie

With any luck we'll have an EDI package shortly for ISCN3 and that should increase availability. You might take a look at ISRaD https://soilradiocarbon.org/ which has some fractionation data in it that might be relevant here. SS4GG might also be interesting and relevant here https://soilspectroscopy.org/ the database isn't live yet but it should be this fall.

Thanks so much. These resources are useful. I am exploring them. I will also wait for the ISCN3.
