Simple function to download a SpaDES module as GitHub repository

getModule(
  modules,
  modulePath,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  verbose = getOption("Require.verbose", 1L)
)

Arguments

modules: Character vector of one or more github repositories as character strings that contain SpaDES modules. These should be presented in the standard R way, with account/repository@branch. If account is omitted, then "PredictiveEcology will be assumed.
modulePath: A local path in which to place the full module, within a subfolder ... i.e., the source code will be downloaded to here: file.path(modulePath, repository). If omitted, and options(spades.modulePath) is set, it will use getOption("spades.modulePath"), otherwise it will use ".".
overwrite: A logical vector of same length (or length 1) gitRepo. If TRUE, then the download will delete any existing folder with the same name as the repository provided in gitRepo
verbose: Numeric or logical indicating how verbose should the function be. If -1 or -2, then as little verbosity as possible. If 0 or FALSE, then minimal outputs; if 1 or TRUE, more outputs; 2 even more. NOTE: in Require function, when verbose >= 2, the return object will have an attribute: attr(.., "Require") which has lots of information about the processes of the installs.
