#runiverse — Public Fediverse posts

timing may not be great given the recent re-organization at github, but browsing #Bioconductor source code and packages is going to be nicer (for now at least) when the package sources and the build system are transitioned to github - #r-universe github.com/bioconductor... #rstats #Bioinformatics

GitHub - bioconductor-source/d...

@rOpenSci an update: the bug has been fixed in the development version of {pak} and {pkgbuild}. you can down use `pak-version: "devel"` in your workflow to use it in your workflows

see https://github.com/hubverse-org/hubValidations/issues/235#issuecomment-2863055858

#RStats #RUniverse #GitHub

If you use a packages from the #RUniverse on #GitHub using r-lib/setup-r-dependencies and are seeing an error that says "malformed DESCRIPTION" it might just be this bug: https://github.com/r-lib/pak/issues/771

In short: A recent deploy of the R Universe added a `File:` field in /src/contrib/PACKAGES that is causing the tarball to be named as the sha256 hash and {pkgbuild} (used by {pak}, which is used by r-lib/setup-r-dependencies) does not like that one bit.

One solution to work around this is to add the GitHub sources to the `packages:` field:

```
with:
packages: |
github::[user]/[repo]@[version]
```

#RStats @rOpenSci

@Lluis_Revilla @bioinfhotep "OS_type" is correctly picked up by #Runiverse !

Build graphics show that {kissatire} is unix only and has a little minus sign for the build status on the right. :)

#RStats

I just added a package to my #RUniverse packages.json but there was a problem updating the registry (was working fine before). The logs are here. https://github.com/r-universe/ellakaye/actions/runs/14268759000/job/39996861708. The problem seems to be in the line "fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': terminal prompts disabled”. Is this a temporary glitch? If not, any ideas how to fix it? I have a PAT set up that seems to be working fine in other contexts.

We're excited and grateful that @RConsortium has named R-Universe their newest top-level project! This means sustained support for @rOpenSci's platform for discovery and publishing of R packages. We've got big plans ahead, especially to support building large, collaborative repositories on top of R-Universe.

All praise to @jeroenooms, R-Universe's lead developer, who will also join the Consortium's Infrastructure Steering Committee.

Jeroen will share details on what #RUniverse is and an update on what you can do with it today. He will also discuss the future of R-universe and how it can be used to navigate the #RStats ecosystem.

Join us to learn more about R-Universe and how you can use it to improve your R package development workflow.

I've decided trying out to try out the #shinylive magic on a shiny app using the `sf` package. However, `sf` doesn't seem to work, and leads to error messages, both using the cran and the #runiverse version. Things get stuck when exporting the app, with either an "access denied" here: https://repo.r-wasm.org/bin/emscripten/contrib/4.4/sf_1.0-17.data or with an "unexpected end ot data" here if I use rspatial https://r-spatial.r-universe.dev/bin/emscripten/contrib/4.4/sf_1.0-18.js.metadata

I must be missing something obvious... hints for troubleshooting?

Seems to be a bug in the R-universe builders.

All new builds seem to be affected.

Filed a bug report here: https://github.com/r-universe-org/help/issues/389

30 minutes after report: Jeroen responds and fixes it!

Speedy response! :)

#RStats folks, @jeroenooms is looking for some feedback on the #RUniverse UI: https://fosstodon.org/@jeroenooms/111812697988072553 @rstats

I just realised that my #PositConf2023 talk on @rOpenSci 's #rUniverse is up on youtube.

I you like any or all of:
- #rstats package dev

- wormholes
- using clever tools so you can do less work

My talk has all of that!

This morning's R trick is to add a shortcut to the R-Universe documentation of any package as a custom search in my browser.

Add a bookmark

https://cran.r-universe.dev/%s/doc/manual.html

with the keyword "m".

So typing "m mgcv" takes me to the full (HTML, accessible, searchable) docs for mgcv

While I'm at it, adding

https://r-universe.dev/search/?q=%s

with keyword "r" to search for packages.

Thanks too to @r4pi! Installing packages for it was very easy! Thanks for providing the binaries. I found only one package I needed that wasn't available and I could install from source after installing the system dependency it had after checking what it needed via #runiverse.

@rOpenSci @Drmowinckels the reason because all this issues disappear is because CRAN create binaries.

When you have packages that never will get to CRAN because you can’t made them smaller you can use #runiverse and you will have your binaries.

#PositConf2023

posit::conf(2023)! is getting closer and I am getting so excited about meeting old and new acquaintances in person!

If you want to learn more about how #runiverse has helped me and my users I'll be speaking in an awesome package dev session on Tuesday Sep 19 3:20 PM - 3:40 PM CDT (10:20 PM - 10:40 PM CEST).

And I built on this in a 'for work' test: not only a 100+ CRAN packages thanks to my #r2u but also three more not-(yet)-on-CRAN packages as #runiverse ubuntu binaries all installing *instantaniously*. Switched to the 8gb codespace and was doing high-end #genomics using a #CZI #cellxgene.census demo in no time. Compelling. #rstats

Another day, another #r2u goodie for #rstats.

Here we quickly install the #runiverse binary build of r-#polars along with r-#arrow -- all as Ubuntu binaries, with all the #arrow package dependencies, all in maybe twenty seconds max, and from a single R command (plus one to set a repository variable). What's not to like?

I couldn't totally understand the rename in #Runiverse. So, it's just renamimg my "universe" repo to "r-universe.dev" or it's something more complicate that I didn't get it? Thanks! @rOpenSci #rstats

Very big fan of Jeroen Ooms' new feature on @ropensci's R-Universe - HTML package manuals: minimal, accessible, Ctrl-F searchable and internally linkable! And you get them for free if you host your package on R-Universe!

Hey #chemiverse! I'll be in #Boston for #MRSF2022 and so so happy to see you beautiful geeky faces in person.

If you are interested in chatting #compchem, #MaterialsScience and #publishing (#DeathtothePDF!), or you simply want to have a ☕ or 🍺 with company , reach out!

Also, anyone in the #chemistry #runiverse(?) interested in a morning run by the Charles river?
