Installation

You can install edc from github with:

# Install remotes if not available
if(!"remotes" %in% installed.packages()[,"Package"]) install.packages("remotes")

# Install edc package from Github
remotes::install_github("RS-eco/edc", build_vignettes = T)

If package installation with install_github() fails, try this as an alternative:

tmp_zip <- tempfile(fileext = ".zip")
source_url <- "https://api.github.com/repos/RS-eco/edc/zipball/main"
utils::download.file(source_url, destfile=tmp_zip, method="wget")
file.exists(tmp_zip)

remotes::install_local(tmp_zip)

After installation, simply load the edc package:

library(edc)

If you encounter a bug or if you have any problems, please file an issue on Github.
