Hi Amanda, thanks for putting your package up!

Just letting you know that it fails to install from Github. I forked and cloned to my machine and I'm also running into issues. Here's what I get when I run r devtools::install_github("aluby/blackboxstudyR"). 

checking for file ‘/private/var/folders/n1/j7r8ntqj24lg0qsq6nwtq6k40000gn/T/RtmplkmYyv/remotesc62e1dfcd9e6/aluby-blackboxstudyR-aa6f045/DESCRIPTION’ ...

I'm acutely concerned about the Error: (converted from warning) no source files found message. I'm working on the package on my system, but I thought I'd give you the heads up to look for a pull request. Do you have any idea what's going on?

I made a few changes and devtools::check() is passing on my machine now (with 1 warning and 2 notes) -- I'm still getting the Warning: no source files found when installing via github but it is not giving me an error.

I'll keep digging into the no source files warning!

Ok, actually removed the src directory and no longer getting installation warnings from devtools::install_github

Have you looked at the rstantools package? I reconfigured blackboxstudyR using it here. It installs on my system (albeit very slowly): devtools::install_github("sctyner/blackboxstudyR")

Ah, yes! I did come across that and put it on my to-do list and promptly forgot about it. Happy to use that configuration. Not sure what the best way is to merge? Going to change the way the model output is stored to speed up installation.

I'll go ahead and submit a pull request!
