Install multilevelmod

[josefortou]

Hi,

I'm trying to install the GitHub version of multilevelmod using devtools::install_github():

devtools::install_github("tidymodels/multilevelmod")

Instead, I'm getting Error: Failed to install 'multilevelmod' from GitHub. I have the most recent version of tidymodels alreayd installed. The complete output I'm seeing is:

I can see that the CRAN version isn't quite ready for installing. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks!

Thanks for your patience with this installation question! 🙌

This can definitely happen more often on Windows, because the binary package you installed from CRAN was built on a newer version of R than what you have. Some options you have include:

• keeping an up-to-date version of R
• installing parsnip from GitHub before you install a dependent package like this one
• setting the R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS environment variable as outlined in this issue

Let us know if you continue to have problems. 👍
