Error with dependency 'shinyQuiz'

[dadlanimonish]

I am having issues with trying to install the development version of thinkCausal locally using a Windows computer as well as Windows Subsystem for Linux. The issue seems to be with the shinyQuiz package. This is the error I keep on receiving.

ERROR: dependency 'shinyQuiz' is not available for package 'thinkCausal'

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

This has to do with thinkCausal using the previous version of shinyquiz before it went to CRAN.

@gperrett I know you have a local version of thinkCausal working. How do you handle this? Do you just install shinyquiz from a previous commit using remotes?

We should move the shinyquiz dependency over to the CRAN version.

Yes, I can push later today. Update should be up by tonight.

Thanks! Much appreciated!

@dadlanimonish I believe @gperrett's latest commit on the dev branch addresses this issue. Until this gets merged into master, you should be able to install from the dev branch via:

remotes::install_github('priism-center/thinkCausal_dev', subdir = 'thinkCausal', ref = 'dev')

@joemarlo Thanks. I was able to install it but I keep getting this error when I run thinkCausal::run_app()

Thanks for your help!

Hmm, I think something happened within the bs4Dash package. You can resolve it by installing a previous version:

devtools::install_version("bs4Dash", "2.1.0")

Then restart your R session and run thinkCausal::run_app()

Also, keep in mind that this is the dev branch so things may not be entirely production ready.

[dadlanimonish]

That allowed the app to start up but is leading to a session disconnect error. I can wait until things are production ready. Thanks for your help!

Any update on this issue?

Thanks!

[gperrett]

It has been resolved, uninstall bs4Dash by running remove.packages('bs4Dash').

Then re-start the installation by running:

remotes::install_github('priism-center/thinkCausal_dev', subdir = 'thinkCausal')
