Trouble using piggyback on private repo

[moldach]

I'm having trouble trying to upload files with {piggyback}.

I've created a (pre-)release .

I already have a Github token set up in my .Renviron. However, it's under GITHUB_PAT= and not GITHUB_TOKEN (not sure if this makes a difference?)

If I try to upload or create a new release I get an error:

pb_upload("data/sqlite/tfac.sqlite")
Error in a[[1]] : subscript out of bounds

traceback()

2: release_info(repo, .token)
1: pb_new_release("xia-lab/NetworkAnalystR")

I'm not sure if this is because I'm a collaborator on another users repo (e.g. using xia-lab instead of my username moldach) or for some other reason?

Thanks for the bug report, I suspect this is due to #36, we should have a new release prepared soon.

I tried creating a fork of the repo under my username:

git clone https://github.com/moldach/NetworkAnalystR.git

And then I get a new error from pb_upload

pb_upload("data/sqlite/tfac.sqlite")
uploading data/sqlite/tfac.sqlite ...
Error in parse_url(url) : length(url) == 1 is not TRUE

traceback()

14: stop(simpleError(msg, call = if (p <- sys.parent(1L)) sys.call(p)))

Thanks for the bug report, I suspect this is due to #36, we should have a new release prepared soon.

Not sure if the second comment I made still relates to #36 or not; I was writing it while you were responding.

Thank you

Subscribing myself in the issue to catch up with the fix once implemented, as I have experienced this as well.

[Robinlovelace]

Update: I've experienced this issue. It also affects repos that were created private but have since been opened, as is the case with https://github.com/Robinlovelace/od

This is what I get:

piggyback::pb_upload("od_data_df_medium.Rds")
Error in a[[1]] : subscript out of bounds

[cboettig]

@Robinlovelace @moldach Apologies for the slow reply, can you try:

remotes::install_github("ropensci/piggyback@patch")

and try again?

[Robinlovelace]

Many thanks @cboettig, I just tried installing the version as instructed and am happy to report that it worked!

[cboettig]

Thanks, closing now.

hoping to get a fix for the deprecation notice in #36 before sending patch to CRAN

I'm still getting a similar problem when trying to upload a file.

> piggyback::pb_upload("crashes_active_london.Rds")
uploading crashes_active_london.Rds ...
Error in parse_url(url) : length(url) == 1 is not TRUE

Your patch no longer seems to be available. I tried updating to the latest version of piggyback but it didn't make any difference. Any ideas?

devtools::install_github("ropensci/piggyback")

[Robinlovelace]

Have you tried manually specifiying the destination repo and ensuring that it has at least 1 release already? Frustrating when it doesn't work for sure.

devtools::install_github("ropensci/piggyback")

I am adding below what I currently use for fetching from private repos and works:

piggyback version:

I am using this commit for installing it and it works (the commit I think is a reference to the patch)

devtools::install_github("ropensci/piggyback@87f71e8")

GITHUB_TOKEN :

Make sure you also set your GITHUB_TOKEN in your environment, eg with:

Sys.setenv(GITHUB_TOKEN = "youractualtokenindoublequotes")

You might also have an issue with auth if you don't grant the required permissions via your GITHUB_TOKEN.

One easy solution with sensible default permissions that works with piggyback is the R:GITHUB_PAT. To create this call usethis::browse_github_pat() and you will be redirected in this link to create your token.

Hope this helps!

That's working now thank you!

Hi,

I'm still receiving an error which stops me from using pb_new_release and pb_upload.

I'm installing devtools::install_github("ropensci/piggyback@87f71e8") after trying with the CRAN version and failing.

I've used usethis::browse_github_pat() and put the TOKEN in '.Renviron' using usethis::edit_r_environ()` in the format GITHUB_PAT=xxxyyyzzz trying with and without double quotes. or with GITHUB_TOKEN = "xxxyyyzzz".

Still I receive the error Error in releases[[1]] : subscript out of bounds to the command pb_new_release("Skourtis/multiOmics", "v1")

and this error to the command pb_track() %>% pb_upload(repo = "Skourtis/multiOmics") Warning: recursive is deprecated, please use recurse instead uploading Project_Datasets/1-s2.0-S2589004219304407-mmc2.xlsx ... Error in parse_url(url) : length(url) == 1 is not TRUE

Suggestions?

[joeytalbot]

The token should be listed in .Renviron as GITHUB_TOKEN=xxxxyyyyzzz without quotes.
