new module for General Linear Model

[mcfanda@gmail.com]

Hi,
I've just finished a beta version of a General Linear Model module. Here it is: https://github.com/mcfanda/jamovi_glm

It is vaguely inspired by SPSS GLM, but does much more than that (humbly speaking ). I developed it based on jmvcore:ancova, so I need to thank the developer of that module quite a lot.

The module Estimates a general linear model with categorical and/or continuous variables, with options to facilitate estimation of interactions, simple slopes, simple effects, etc.

I'd like to ask how can I put the module in some "testing" repository for jamovi users so that people can try it out.

thanks

hey,

sounds good! i'm thinking about adding a separate 'beta channel' to the jamovi library, but we should be able to do something in the interim too.

i'll get a couple of us to try it out, we'll make a few suggestions, and we'll take it from there.

i've just had a quick look now, and can't get it to work

i'll drop you an issue in your issue tracker.

cheers!

Hi,
where is the best method to write a tutorial/help for a jamovi module (in beta phase). The README in github?

[jonathon]

hey,

yeah, it's a good Q. the README in gh would be pretty good. i'm planning on writing a vignette/guide for the walrus module using github pages:

https://pages.github.com/

i'm thinking it would be good to take an approach which is suitable for both gh pages, and the R package vignettes, but i haven't totally figured out the best way to do that.

maybe start with gh pages, and you can always adapt it later.

cheers

Ok, I have a draft version now, https://mcfanda.github.io/jamovi_glm/ . it would be nice to have a "jamovi" theme, but I'm sure it is not a priority

[jonathon]

looking good! i'll have some tips for you for your module in the next day or so.

cheers

great, I'd appreciate that. I'm planning to finish the other module (mixed models) but I would like to follow some standard for all of them, so the user do not get confused. So as soon as I get the GLM module well defined, I can follow the same leads for the mixed.
