Fix devtools checks #45

Closed Rekyt closed 3 years ago

Rekyt commented 3 years ago

Hi @fdschneider, as proposed in #44 here is a PR to fix devtools check. The problem with the data is due to Dryad changing its file stream ids. The best method to avoid this issue would be to instead download the data files with their DOIs which are stable.

I wanted to check the PR on other platforms than my local computer through rhub but only the maintainer can.

Thanks (and sorry it took so long to respond)! It's incredible how unstable Dryad handles its URLs. Not the first time they changed it. Unfortunately, the DOIs do not point directly to the raw data, but to a description page.

No worries for the response time, we all know you're not paid to do this so you're the one decinding if, how, and when you do things. Argh... Dryad is really difficult to work with consistently.
