This is the current version of the SuperLearner R package (version 2.*).

To install the SuperLearner package on your computer you have two options.

If you have devtools installed you can install the package using the following script.

require(devtools)
install_github("ecpolley/SuperLearner")

These steps assume your system is set up to build and install R packages from source.

1. Download the entire repository using the Downloads link in the upper right.
2. Unzip the downloaded file. [Of course, if you have git, you could replace steps 1 and 2 with: git clone git://github.com/ecpolley/SuperLearner.git]
3. Run R CMD build /path/to/folder
4. You should now have a file called SuperLearner_2.0-15.tar.gz
5. Run R CMD INSTALL SuperLearner_2.0-15.tar.gz
6. Alternative to step 5, in R use the command install.packages('SuperLearner_2.0-15.tar.gz', repos = NULL, type = 'source') assuming you are in the correct directory for the *.tar.gz file (or add full path to the command)

The package should now exist in your R library and can be loaded with the command library(SuperLearner). The SuperLearner package has 2 required packages that need to be installed before SuperLearner. The required packages are nnls and quantreg and they can be installed from CRAN. In R, use the command install.packages(c("nnls", "quantreg")).
