Cmdstanr::install_cmdstan() GitHub Timeone, need authentication token

Interfaces CmdStan

I’m getting a timeout for cmdstanr::install_cmdstan().

Is there an option like:

remotes::install_github("stan-dev/cmdstanr", auth_token = <my private token here>)

for cmdstanr::install_cmdstan()?

This is being installed in from a Dockerfile on AWS if that helps with more context.

cmdstanr checks the standard GITHUB_PAT environment variable for a user-provided github auth token.

You can read more about how this is generally handled in R packages in this rOpenSci blog post

Thank you @andrjohns for the help!

Here’s what I did inside my docker file:

RUN R -e 'Sys.setenv(GITHUB_PAT  = "<my private token here"); cmdstanr::install_cmdstan()'
