I am trying to install a sample package from my github repo:
https://github.com/jpmarindiaz/samplepkg
I can install it when the repo is public using any of the following commands through the R interpreter:
install_github("jpmarindiaz/rdali")
install_github("rdali",user="jpmarindiaz")
install_github("jpmarindiaz/rdali",auth_user="jpmarindiaz")
But when the git repository is private I get an Error:
Installing github repo samplepkg/master from jpmarindiaz
Downloading samplepkg.zip from
https://github.com/jpmarindiaz/samplepkg/archive/master.zip
Error: client error: (406) Not Acceptable
I haven't figured out how the authentication works when the repo is private, any hints?
Have you tried setting a personal access token (PAT) and passing it along as the value of the auth_token
argument of install_github()
?
See ?install_github
way down at the bottom (Package devtools
version 1.5.0.99).
