[Rnomads-user] Work around for XML_PARSE_HUGE errors

[Bowman, Daniel]

Hi all,


An rNOMADS user had an issue a while back parsing grib repositories:

Error: Excessive depth in document: 256 use XML_PARSE_HUGE option [1]


After a lot of back and forth, head scratching, etc, the best I can do at this point is suggest using a forked version of the xml2 package that makes the problem go away:


library(drat)
drat:::add("shabbychef")
install.packages('xml2')

I will be considering how to fix the error in the official rNOMADS library (without requiring users to install non-CRAN libraries), but please use this work around for now.


Best,


Danny
