jamovi

Dear all,

I have used jamovi for one year and it is an excellent data analysis tool. I am trying to add a module but it had something wrong when I installed 'jmvtools' in my system R.

The warning message is "package ‘jmvtools’ is not available (for R version 3.6.3)". Is there a solution for this?

Thank you very much.

hey,

this command doesn't work?

install.packages('jmvtools', repos=c('https://repo.jamovi.org', 'https://cran.r-project.org'))

https://dev.jamovi.org/tuts0101-getting-started.html

kind regards

jonathon

Thanks for your reply but it still dosen't work.

There is the warning message:

install.packages('jmvtools', repos=c('https://repo.jamovi.org', 'https://cran.r-project.org'))
WARNING: Rtools is required to build R packages but is not currently installed. Please download and install the appropriate version of Rtools before proceeding:

so this is the problem:

unable to access index for repository https://repo.jamovi.org/src/contrib:
cannot open URL 'https://repo.jamovi.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES'

which suggests there's an issue with your internet connection. try pasting the url into your web browser, and see if it can access it: https://repo.jamovi.org/src/contrib/PACKAGES

Is this the right response?

yeah, perfect. i wonder why R can't find it. are you behind a proxy or similar?

we can spend time figuring out what's up with your computer/network, but it might be easier to just download jmvtools from here:

https://repo.jamovi.org/src/contrib/

and install them manually.

cheers

Do you mean vpn or something other? I did not use a vpn tool.

I download the 'jmvtools_1.3.3.tar.gz' and install them manually but there is an error like this:

I also tried the version 1.3.2 and there is no difference.
I'm afraid I have taken up too much of your time and thank you very much.

you need to download and install node from here too:

https://repo.jamovi.org/src/contrib/

install node first, *then* the install of jmvtools will work.

cheers

It works!!

Thank you for your patient guidance!

I will learn to install a module following the tutorial.
