Power analysis is essential to optimize the design of RNA-seq experiments and to assess and compare the power to detect differentially expressed genes. PowsimR is a flexible tool to simulate and evaluate differential expression from bulk and especially single-cell RNA-seq data making it suitable for a priori and posterior power analyses.

devtools remotes for easier installation #8

Closed oganm closed 6 years ago

oganm commented 6 years ago

Installation can be simplified by using devtools remote syntax at DESCRIPTION. You just need to list your dependencies and where they come from. Github and bioconductor is easy to set up.

See https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/devtools/vignettes/dependencies.html

Edit: Just noticed the github ones listed as remotes. If bioc ones are also added there won't be a need to run pre-installation commands

Hello,

thank you for pointing this out. I will give it another try. In the past, I ran into some errors because my dependencies would try to install their own dependencies but fail and then throw an error if I set in my install_github command dependencies=T which is the default. That is the reason I separated the two out.
