Install process breaks due to Github-generated file name #6

Closed cafreeman closed 8 years ago

cafreeman commented 8 years ago

The process of "download the zip -> rename to yxi -> open in Alteryx" doesn't behave as expected because the download from zip file unzips to "Optimization-master" instead of just "Optimization", which causes Alteryx to be unable to find it even when you install from the yxi

Thanks @cafreeman. I have updated the installation instructions to account for this. The AlteryxRhelper package will have a createYXI function, which we can use to create yxi packages that can then be made downloadable using the releases feature.

You are right, this does not solve the issue, since the unzip happens to a *-master folder. I will reopen this and figure out a solution.

The createYXI function in AlteryxRhelper generates YXIs. That can be combined with github releases to distribute YXIs.
