Overview

About

Maintained by George OkokoFirst published 2024-01-241 releasesCRAN page ↗

A collection of integrated tools designed to seamlessly interact with each other for the analysis of biogenic silica 'bSi' in inland and marine sediments. These tools share common data representations and follow a consistent 'API' design. The primary goal of the 'bSi' package is to simplify the installation process, facilitate data loading, and enable the analysis of multiple samples for biogenic silica fluxes. This package is designed to enhance the efficiency and coherence of the entire 'bSi' analytic workflow, from data loading to model construction and visualization tailored towards reconstructing productivity in aquatic ecosystems.

Install

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

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

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

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-bsi

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-bSi

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-bSi

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