Getting Started Using MEMC

Follow the download and installation instructions for R and R studio.

Use remotes to install MEMC as a built R package directory from github.

# use install.packages("remotes") to install this package the first time.
library(remotes)

# Now build and install the R package on your local machine.
install_github('Microbial-Explicit-Model/MEMC') 

# You can also install from specific git tags...
install_github("Microbial-Explicit-Model/MEMC@version")

# ...branches...
install_github("Microbial-Explicit-Model/MEMC@branch_name")

# ...or commit hashes.
install_github("Microbial-Explicit-Model/MEMC@commit-hash")

For developers

Clone the repository from github to install the package in development mode. Build the package by calling devtools::load_all() in R from the root directory. Please see r-pkgs for more information on how to build and develop R packages.

After making changes to the code, checking out a new git branch, or pulling new commits you will need to do a clean rebuild of the MEMC package. From Rstudio click Build > Clean and Rebuild or run the following in the R console.

devtools::build()
