Drug interaction not running in MAFtools

Hi! I am trying to run the drugInteractions function in the MAFtools pipeline, but it seems that it is simply not there. Here is the message I am getting:

> library("maftools")
> druggable = drugInteractions(maf = STES_maf, fontSize = 0.75)
Error in drugInteractions(maf = laml, fontSize = 0.75) : 
  could not find function "drugInteractions"

According to the authors, this function compiles info from the DGI-db. So I checked whether this funtion was borrowed from DGI, but I had no success.

Did anybody face the same issue? Would anybody know how to fix it? Not ideal, but recommending an alternative package for this kind of analysis would also help.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi, @zx8754 It is indeed. I saw you were also there. So, thank you for the support. The reason why is also here is because I posted the issue first here, and a day later on GitHub, to the author. But the problem seems to be solved. I will post here shortly. Thanks again for the follow-up.

Problem solved!

There is no logic behind it, really. But it worked. Well, simply get it directlly from GitHub:

devtools::install_github('PoisonAlien/maftools')

I have tried that on the day I posted the issue here, but didn't work. I did that again today, and it worked. :|

In any case, the author was very responsive! Very good feedback time. Thanks!
