File path requiring manual adjustment in R Binder demo

[dmgt]

First, thank you for creating this tutorial, implementing it in multiple programming languages, and sharing it as a Binder - very helpful and easy to share with colleagues.

Here's what appears to be a file path issue - I'm happy to submit a PR to adjust this in the .Rmd version if helpful.

Specifically, running the code in line 259 of raincloud_tutorial_r.Rmd verbatim rep_data <- read_csv("repeated_measures_data.csv" ... was resulting in this error on Binder :

Error: 'repeated_measures_data.csv' does not exist in current working directory ('/home/jovyan')

So far I've tested two ways to resolve this, either explicitly including the path, eg

rep_data <- read_csv("tutorial_R/repeated_measures_data.csv" ...

or by using the here package to navigate to the directory relative to the top-level repo. Using here is good practice for reproducibility in R in general, but requires adding a package that is not installed yet, so I think the above is a quicker fix.

rep_data <- read_csv(here("tutorial_R", "repeated_measures_data.csv") ...

Hi @dmgt! Thank you so much for catching this!

My personal preference would be for the here solution that you suggest! You’re exactly right that it is better practice!

To add a package, you can edit the install.R file and add whatever is needed.

A PR would be really welcome! Let me know if I can help 😺
