Using the instructions described in github and installing Java accordingly with Chocolatey -- plus installing rJava and setting the path in R with Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME = "C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_131")-- I've done the following in R:

library(ghit)
library(git2r)
ghit::install_github(c("leeper/tabulizerjars", "leeper/tabulizer"), INSTALL_opts = "--no-multiarch", dependencies = c("Depends", "Imports"))

Which is the solution provided in this answer. I get the following error:

Error in git2r::init(d) : 
  Error in 'git2r_repository_init': Unable to init repository

Setting the option VERBOSE = TRUE in install_github I get the following additional output:

Parsing reponame for 'leeper/tabulizerjars'...
Creating local git repository for tabulizerjars in C:\Users\JOOCAR~1\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpgnitDP\tabulizerjars1643e0126f5...
Error in git2r::init(d) : 
  Error in 'git2r_repository_init': Unable to init repository

I read this answer and it seems that it has to do with my username, which is spaced and has accents. But how do I configure this?

Following user @jaySf answer, I run part of the code of his answer (since I've already installed rJava and devtools):

library(rJava) # load and attach 'rJava' now
devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", args="--no-multiarch")

And got the following error:

I believe that I might have a problem with my username in the file directory path, but I'm not sure. I tried using install_github with ggplot2 --`install_github("wch/ggplot2") -- and it worked fine. If my guess is correct, how can I edit the file path?

Problem solved

I was running R with both 32 bit and 64 bit files installed. I cannot clearly state what were the problems in doing this, since as I ran Sys.getenv("R_ARCH") it returned x64 previously, but when I uninstalled the 32 bit files, it ran perfectly well with @jaySf code.

Follow these steps in given order should work: 

install.packages("rJava")
library(rJava) # load and attach 'rJava' now
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", args="--no-multiarch")

I'm using R 3.4.0 on win64, and described the procedure in a former answer.

    See my updated answer. I'm doing all this from RStudio, if that is relevant. I ran your code and still I cannot install `tabulizer`. – John Doe Jun 04 '17 at 05:03
  • Me too, RStudio 1.0.143. Have you tried deinstalling rJava, devtools first? I can remember it was quite tricky to bring `tabulizer` onto my machine. – jay.sf Jun 04 '17 at 07:08
  • Are you sure that you are running x64? Your error message says: "ERROR: loading failed for 'i386' ". One more slight difference: I have installed the Java _JRE_ only, `C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_131`, but should be included in the _JDK_. – jay.sf Jun 04 '17 at 07:32

    I think you grasped what I needed to do! I've ran `Sys.getenv("R_ARCH")`which returned `x64`. But then I uninstalled both R and Rstudio and reinstalled then, but I've installed only the 64 bit files this time as a test. And it worked! I think RStudio was searching through 32bit files in R. – John Doe Jun 04 '17 at 15:43
  • Since this solution was clearly somehow pointed out by you, I'm awarding you with the answer o/ – John Doe Jun 04 '17 at 15:51

You might try:

devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizerjars", INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch")) 

devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", INSTALL_opts = c("--no-multiarch"))
