error with installing qiime2R

[mjbug]

Hello. I've tried installing qiime2R in the following ways

install.packages("remotes")
library(remotes)
remotes::install_github("jbisanz/qiime2R")

if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE)){install.packages("devtools")}
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("jbisanz/qiime2R") 

Both ways received the same error

Downloading GitHub repo jbisanz/qiime2R@HEAD
Error: Failed to install 'qiime2R' from GitHub:
  'from' must be of length 1

What does this error mean and how else should I try installing qiime2R?

Thank you.

Could you post your session info? You could also try installing from source:

#see here for more info https://forum.qiime2.org/t/problems-installing-qiime2r/11999/6
download.file("https://github.com/jbisanz/qiime2R/archive/master.zip", "source.zip")
unzip("source.zip")
install.packages("qiime2R-master", repos = NULL, type="source")

Just tried your previous suggestion

download.file("https://github.com/jbisanz/qiime2R/archive/master.zip", "source.zip")
unzip("source.zip")
install.packages("qiime2R-master", repos = NULL, type="source")

and received this error

ERROR: dependencies 'Biostrings', 'rhdf5', 'zCompositions', 'phyloseq' are not available for package 'qiime2R'
* removing 'C:/Users/bugsj/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.2/qiime2R'
Warning in install.packages :
  installation of package ‘qiime2R-master’ had non-zero exit status

Should I download the above dependencies and re-try?

Yes, when in doubt, manually install the dependencies. Not sure why you would have this problem, could be something about where they are being installed on windows.
