Install massdatabase from GitLab

You can just use the remotes to install massdatabase.

remotes::install_gitlab("tidymass/massdatabase", dependencies = TRUE)

During the installation, it will ask if you want to update some packages for few times, just enter enter key to skip it.

Install massdatabase from GitHub

You can just use the remotes to install massdatabase.

remotes::install_github("tidymass/massdatabase", dependencies = TRUE)

During the installation, it will ask if you want to update some packages for few times, just enter enter key to skip it.

If there is a error like below:

Error: Failed to install 'massdatabase' from GitHub: HTTP error 403. API rate limit exceeded for 171.66.10.237. (But here's the good news: Authenticated requests get a higher rate limit. Check out the documentation for more details.)

Try to resolve it by:

  1. In you R console, type this code:

It will open a page in browser, and create a “New personal access token” and copy it.

  1. Then type this code:
usethis::edit_r_environ()

and then add one line like below:

GITHUB_PAT=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

The GITHUB_PAT should be yours that is created in step 1.

And then restart R session and try again.

Let me know if you have any questions.
