# Installation

### GitHub

    devtools::install_github("StatFunGen/colocboost")

### Conda

Install major releases using pre-built conda package with a conda-compatible package manager (recommended)

Global pixi installation is the easiest way to use the conda package

    pixi global install -c dnachun -c conda-forge r-base # Install r-base as a global package if not already installed
    pixi global install -c dnachun -c conda-forge --environment r-base r-colocboost # Inject r-colocboost into r-base global environment

The package can also be added to a local pixi environment

    pixi workspace channel add dnachun # Add the dnachun channel to the workspace
    pixi add r-colocboost # Add r-colocboost as a dependency to the environment

Micromamba is recommended instead of conda or mamba for traditional conda environments

    micromamba install -c dnachun -c conda-forge r-colocboost
    mamba install -c dnachun -c conda-forge r-colocboost
    conda install -c dnachun -c conda-forge r-colocboost
