getSpatialData errors

[gmyenni]

I get random errors in the Travis build from the update ndvi step (update_ndvi.R).
ie There are new data and it retrieves them fine, but then a getSpatialData function errors in processing, or in totally unrelated login issues. This can mask more relevant errors that happen later in the pipeline.

eg: https://travis-ci.org/github/weecology/PortalData/builds/752435779
There are several open issues: 16EAGLE/getSpatialData#76, 16EAGLE/getSpatialData#79

I have tried a few scripts from getSpatialData, but the error had not been the same. Can you provide some code you use to test portalduta locally

[gmyenni]

Yeah, you can source update_ndvi.R then run lines 145 - 155. That will sometimes work fine, and sometimes give me a dimensionality error.

So @henrykironde is the error in https://travis-ci.org/github/weecology/PortalData/builds/754572011 the same as what's happening in 16EAGLE/getSpatialData#76, 16EAGLE/getSpatialData#76 then?

[henrykironde]

They are different all the time. Let me try to get the errors and report back. For now I think I should first change the logic in lines 145 - 155.

[henrykironde]

@gmyenni, let me know when you have some free time to help me clear up some issues in the code. I am getting some new errors.

[gmyenni]

Sure, this afternoon?

This seems to be working. Hopefully I'm not jinxing by closing. 🤞
