Installation

tmap is available on CRAN. Installation is straightforward:

install.packages("tmap")

For Linux and macOS users who are new to working with spatial data in R, this may fail since additional (non-R) libraries are required (which are automatically installed for Windows users).

Windows No additional installation required.

Linux (Ubuntu) See https://geocompx.org/post/2020/installing-r-spatial-packages-linux/. Please address installation issues in this issue.

macOS See https://www.kyngchaos.com/. Please address installation issues in this issue.

Development

The latest development version can be installed using remotes. In order to use the development version of tmap, it is recommended to use the development version of tmaptools as well:

# install.packages("remotes")
install_github("r-tmap/tmap")

# On Linux, with pak
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("r-tmap/tmap")

# Or from r-universe
install.packages("tmap", repos = c("https://r-tmap.r-universe.dev", "https://cloud.r-project.org"))

See NEWS for the latest features and improvements and the issue list for discussions of enhancements and bugs.
