rk.CohenKappa

This R package provides a GUI to calculate Cohen’s Kappa.

It is a plugin package for RKWard, a powerful GUI and IDE for R, and will only work in conjunction with RKWard. However, RKWard is free software, please check it out.

Installation

Installation via RKWard

After you installed RKWard, simply install this package like any other R package. The easiest way to get the most recent stable release is to use RKWard’s package management:

• Go to Settings -> Manage R packages and plugins... -> Install/Update/Remove R packages
• Check Show only packages providing RKWard dialogs and look at New Packages
• Check the desired package(s) and hit Apply

After you installed the package, RKWard should immediately have additional menu entries – there’s usually no need to restart the application.

Installation via GitHub

To install it directly from GitHub, you can use install_github() from the devtools package:

devtools::install_github("rkward-community/rk.CohenKappa") # stable release
devtools::install_github("rkward-community/rk.CohenKappa", ref="develop") # development release

You can safely ignore warnings about the (unavailable) package “rkward”, it was installed together with RKWard.

This plugin is built using the rkwarddev package. This means that its development is mainly focussed on one script file, located at rk.CohenKappa/inst/rkward/rkwarddev_plugin_script_kappa.R. This script is written in R code and generates all of the other plugin files when run. Therefore, in case you’d like to add to this plugin, please add to this script file.

Branches

Please note that all development happens in the develop branch. Pull requests against the master branch will be rejected, as it is reserved for the current stable release.
