Installing oce in R
Several of the blog items have used the oce package. The official version of this can be installed from within R by
install.packages("oce")
and more up-to-date versions can be installed using the devtools
package,
which is itself installed with
install.packages("devtools")
after which installing the latest development version of oce is accomplished with
library(devtools)
install_github('ocedata', 'dankelley', 'master')
install_github('oce', 'dankelley', 'develop')
Note that the ocedata
package does not need to be updated frequently, as it
only updated when new datasets are added to oce. The official version of oce is
only updated every few months, but the branch named develop
(used above) may
be updated several times a day, if the author is adding new features or fixing
bugs.
For more on oce, see the oce development site and the online manual for the package.
