Overview

About

Maintained by Sean L. WuFirst published 2020-10-245 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A simulation modeling framework which significantly extends capabilities from the 'MGDrivE' simulation package via a new mathematical and computational framework based on stochastic Petri nets. For more information about 'MGDrivE', see our publication: Sánchez et al. (2019) doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13318 Some of the notable capabilities of 'MGDrivE2' include: incorporation of human populations, epidemiological dynamics, time-varying parameters, and a continuous-time simulation framework with various sampling algorithms for both deterministic and stochastic interpretations. 'MGDrivE2' relies on the genetic inheritance structures provided in package 'MGDrivE', so we suggest installing that package initially.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("MGDrivE2", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("MarshallLab/MGDrivE")

Development version from MarshallLab/MGDrivE. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-mgdrive2

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-MGDrivE2

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-MGDrivE2

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
