The BiclustGUI for R Commander

RcmdrPlugin.BiclustGUI is a R Commander Plug-In containing multiple methods to apply biclustering and visualise these results.

Installing the GUI

To install the CRAN Release Version (1.1.1), please use the following commands:

setRepositories(ind=c(1:5))
install.packages("RcmdrPlugin.BiclustGUI")

To install the Development Version from either the R-Forge or GitHub repository use:

setRepositories(ind=c(1:5))
install.packages("RcmdrPlugin.BiclustGUI",repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

or

setRepositories(ind=c(1:5))
install.packages("devtools") # If not yet installed on your R Version
devtools::install_github("hadley/devtools") # Only run this if your currently installed 
                                            # devtools version is <= 1.12 (recursive dependencies bug)

devtools::install_github("ewouddt/RcmdrPlugin.BiclustGUI")

One of the options above will install the GUI and its dependencies from both CRAN and Bioconductor. Should some issue arise with a package installation, please try to manual install them. The code for this can be found here.

On the initial start-up of R Commander, you will probably be prompted to install some additional dependencies. This should not take too long!

To launch the GUI, use:

library(RcmdrPlugin.BiclustGUI)
