Trouble with rgeeExtra install

[gltyree]

Hi, I want to use rgeeExtra to import Javascript modules from GEE, as described in r-spatial/rgee issue #155 (r-spatial/rgee#155). I have successfully downloaded the required version of reticulate (1.22.9000) but I am having difficulty downloading the rgeeExtra package. Below is my code and the output.

remotes::install_github("r-earthengine/rgeeExtra")

Downloading GitHub repo r-earthengine/rgeeExtra@HEAD
Error: Failed to install 'rgeeExtra' from GitHub:
Git does not seem to be installed on your system.
In addition: Warning message:
In readLines(file) :
incomplete final line found on 'C:\Users\Gtyree\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpSSb4xZ\remotesd228626324ba/r-earthengine-rgeeExtra-a14ee7c/.gitmodules'

I attempted to solve the issue by installing Git, but after I did that I began to experience the issue described in r-spatial/rgee issue #91 (r-spatial/rgee#91). It's possible that the problem was unrelated to Git, but was only solved after I both uninstalled Git and ran this code:

library(rgee)
library(reticulate)
earthengine_python <- Sys.getenv("EARTHENGINE_PYTHON", unset = NA)
Sys.setenv(RETICULATE_PYTHON = earthengine_python)
reticulate::py_config()

Is there a way to install rgeeExtra that doesn't require Git? I have also tried devtools::install_github("r-earthengine/rgeeExtra") but received the same error message.

I am using RStudio v. 1.4.1717 on a Windows 10 computer.

Here to see what happens. Getting the same error.

@joshualerickson @gltyree sorry for the late reply,

PS: rgeeExtra needs reticulate 1.22.9000 to work!
Can you try again? thanks! :)

[joshualerickson]

Work for me, thanks! Updated to 1.22.9000 and works just fine with the rgeeExtra example.

Hi Cesar, it worked for me this time as well, thank you for the guidance!

As mentioned in my original post, I want to use rgeeExtra to import .js modules, as discussed in r-spatial/rgee#155. Running an rgee equivalent to var X = require(moduleX) presented this error, in which R misinterpreted the require function:

Model = require('users/gtyreegee/MODIS:Modules/CW16_v3_module')

Loading required package: users/gtyreegee/MODIS:Modules/CW16_v3_module
Warning message:
In library(package, lib.loc = lib.loc, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, :
there is no package called ‘users/gtyreegee/MODIS:Modules/CW16_v3_module’

Do you have any guidance on importing .js modules with rgeeExtra?

Disregard that last post - I found the ee_module.R script on the rgeeExtra Github page. Will begin a new issue if one crops up. Thanks again!
