The R-Universe platform provides a github-hosted indexer as an alternative to submitting R-packages to CRAN. This repository contains a JSON file that is regularly indexed for the listed publicly available R-packages developed by IIASA staff.
Any R-package listed in the json will be built and made available on https://iiasa.r-universe.dev/.
The listed R-packages can then be installed by providing an additional repository
to install.packages().
Example:
# Install the ibis R-package
install.packages('ibis.iSDM', repos = "https://iiasa.r-universe.dev")
To add a new R-package to the indexer, simply edit the JSON in this repository.
