Can't Install using Rstudio on PC running Windows 7 about rpivottable HOT 7 CLOSED

@PKBibi apologies for taking so long to reply. Could you kindly try to install first of all only htmlwidgets (from CRAN) as a source?

install.packages("htmlwidgets", type="source")

Once successful you can try as usual:

devtools::install_github("smartinsightsfromdata/rpivottable")

The reason for this is to make sure you have all the proper tools in the windows environments and eliminate that as a cause of your issue.

@PKBibi Any news on your problems? Can I close this issue? Thanks for letting me know

Hi Enzo

Apologies for not getting back to you earlier.

Yes you can close this.

I found out that because R was installed in "programs files" directory, I
could not install packages from github with devtools.

By un-installing R and re-installing in a separate directory (not the
default program files directory), this problem has been solved.

If you get this question a lot, perhaps ask them to check where they
installed R.

Once again, thanks for your assistance.

BTW; where can I get the best intro tutorials to rpivotTable?

Kind regards
PK Bibi

Hello

install_github("ramnathv/htmlwidgets")

Downloading github repo ramnathv/htmlwidgets@master
Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) :
there is no package called ‘stringi’

devtools::install_github("smartinsightsfromdata/rpivottable")

from rpivottable.

@mariellasca have you tried to load the package stringi on its own first?

stringi is used by a number of packages, including stringr, which in turn is used by devtools etc..

R sometime does not seem to install dependencies (or is not doing it recursively), possibly when the Repo is not specified (see here).

Let me know how it goes!

Yes, but that was not enough, I installed the last version of R and then it worked. Thanks
