SardineForecast

To install SardineForecast, you will need to install the following package:

• devtools

If you are on a Windows machine, you will also need to install Rtools from https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/Rtools/.

Once you have installed these packages, install SardineForecast using the following code. The "No errors from warnings" prevents installation from stopping if your R version is less than the version of the packages in SardineForecast.

devtools::install_github("eeholmes/SardineForecast")

If you are on a Windows machine and get an error saying 'loading failed for i386' or similar, then try

options(devtools.install.args = "--no-multiarch")

If R asks you to update packages, and then proceeds to fail at installation because of a warning that a package was built under a later R version than you have on your computer, use

Sys.setenv(R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS=TRUE)

The SardineForecast package and the required packages should automatically install when you install. However, if they do not for some reason, you need to install them yourself from CRAN before installing SardineForecast:

• stringr
• forecast
• rmarkdown
• knitr
• bibtex
• gbRd
• mgcv
• maps
• mapdata
• MARSS
