[R-pkg-devel] Package suggested but not available for checking: 'rPeaks'; Additional_repositories
Thank you very much for your suggestions and explanation, Ralf. They are
very helpful.
I got permission from the author and use *drat::addRepo("jrminter").*
*When I try to test if this package can be installed with install.package*
*install.packages("rPeaks", repos = "https://jrminter.github.io/drat/
<https://jrminter.github.io/drat/>", type = "source")Warning in

. But it didn't work out for me. OR maybe I didn't set up it right. My GitHub repository is https://github.com/tankwin08/waveformlidar. My DESCRIPTION: Suggests: knitr, rPeaks Additional_repositories: https://github.com/jrminter/rPeaks/
The 'Additional_repositories' field is meant for additional CRAN-like
repositories, not for a git(hub) repository. A simple way to create such
a CRAN-like repository is given by the drat package, as mentioned in the
referenced SO answer. I am using that for the swephR package:
...
Suggests:
testthat,
swephRdata,
knitr,
rmarkdown
Encoding: UTF-8
URL: https://github.com/rstub/swephR/, http://www.astro.com/swisseph/
BugReports: https://github.com/rstub/swephR/issues/
Additional_repositories: https://rstub.github.io/drat
...
So while the 'swephRdata' can be found at
https://github.com/rstub/swephRdata/, the 'Additional_repositories'
field points to my drat repository.
In your case, you could either ask the rPeaks author to create a drat
repo or do that yourself (possibly with the author's consent).
Greetings
Ralf
