Installation

LinkR can be installed and run from RStudio or installed on ShinyProxy.

Installation on RStudio

The remotes library will be required for the installation of LinkR. You can install it with this command:

install.packages("remotes")

Stable version

Install the latest stable version with this command:

remotes::install_gitlab("interhop/linkr/linkr", host = "framagit.org")

Development version

To install the latest development version, add @dev to the end of the git repository link.

remotes::install_gitlab("interhop/linkr/linkr@dev", host = "framagit.org")

Important - shiny.fluent version

You also need to install version 0.3.0 of shiny.fluent.

By default, version 0.4.0 is installed, but it has unresolved bugs.

remotes::install_github('Appsilon/shiny.fluent', ref = 'dd1c956')

Start LinkR

To launch LinkR from RStudio or from an R console, execute the function linkr.

The following arguments need to be specified and are sufficient for simple use of LinkR:

• language: choose the language between “fr” and “en”
• app_folder: choose the folder where the files necessary for the application’s operation will be saved

You can also modify these arguments:

• local: choose TRUE if you want to launch the application locally (without an internet connection), FALSE otherwise
• debug: TRUE if you want log messages to be displayed in the console or in the log file, FALSE otherwise
• log_file: TRUE if you want a log file to be created and the log to be accessible from LinkR, FALSE otherwise

linkr::linkr(language = "fr", app_folder = "/home/user_name")
