not on CRAN anymore?

[py-b]

any idea about the reason why it was removed from CRAN?

[JaseZiv]

To be honest, I'm still not entirely sure... There was a URL that didn't fail gracefully on their end (I could never recreate the issue) so they removed it after I didn't rectify the issue

The issue appears to be that a network query in the vignette failed which is an unfortunate reason for archiving a package.

There are a few workarounds for this:

• precompute the vignette https://ropensci.org/blog/2019/12/08/precompute-vignettes/
• skip evaluation of the code blocks on CRAN https://blog.r-hub.io/2020/06/03/vignettes/#how-to-include-a-compute-intensive--authentication-dependent-vignette
• make the vignette an 'article' in pkgdown instead (same link)

I'm happy to help out if you would like.

Hey @jonocarroll,

I'd absolutely welcome your contribution here - I'm so swamped with work at the moment so don't curremtly have any time to spare

No worries - I'll make a PR that should resolve it and pass CRAN's checks (I'll test as best as I can) but you'll need to do the re-submission to CRAN as the maintainer (whenever you get a chance - I'm not pushing a timeline).

Really appreciate it, thanks heaps.
