What is githubinstall?

Githubinstall is a package that can help when you install the package
from github. When you install the package with devtools, you mustspecify a user and package name in github. However, by using thegithubinstall, you can install the package without a username. We
remember only the package name when using this. We don't use
developer name. Therefore, we must re-examine the user name eachtime to install the package to the new environment. By using thisgithubinstall package, you can save the time and effort. If there aresame package name in github, you can select any one.

R Package Database

In order to realize the function of this package, it is necessary to gather
a set of package name and developer name. Therefore, we use github
api to get them and update the package list every day. The result isshared by twitter bot ( https://twitter.com/g_rpkg ). Many packages areadded everyday. And all the collected packages list is published at
http://rpkg.gepuro.net . You can see that over 30000 packages arereleased in github. This database is used in available package( https://github.com/ropenscilabs/available ) in addition to githubinstall
package.

In the case of devtools> install_github("hadley/dplyr")In the case of githubinstall> githubinstall("dplyr")

Not need to write username

Fussy string search

We can not remember exactly the package name. And we sometimes
make typo. This function help you in this situations.

When the package name is accurate> githubinstall(“AnomalyDetections”)

When the package name is not accurate> githubinstall("AnomaryDetection")> githubinstall("AnomalyDetect")> githubinstall("anomaly-detection")
If you make typo, we can install package.
