calling in/using other R modules

Hello all---

I apologize in advance for asking a dumb question. I did not see this topic posted elsewhere.

Is it possible to add in an R module to Jamovi? Specifically, I would like to use the Metafor package (and then later, others on that topic). If it's possible, how would I do that?

Thank you for your indulgence of this, as I am sure it is obvious but I'm just getting started with the platform!

Ted.

hi,

jamovi requires that an R package be turned into a jamovi module before it can be used in jamovi. jamovi requires additional things, like a UI, etc, so it can't just use an R package straight off CRAN.

we have a tutorial on developing jamovi modules here:

https://dev.jamovi.org

cheers

Hey Ted I've been working on a Jamovi module using metafor if you want a semi functional example take a look at what I've been working on https://github.com/kylehamilton/JamoviMeta
