[R-sig-ME] broom package and MCMCglmm estimates

[Pierre de Villemereuil]

Hi,

As far as I can see, there is no method to tidy up MCMCglmm output in broom. You can see that by looking at the "tidiers" functions in broom using:
library(help = broom) #No MCMCglmm

However, MCMCglmm output contains "mcmc" class objects that can be tidied up using tidyMCMC():
- fixed effects: tidyMCMC(model$Sol)
- random effects: tidyMCMC(model$VCV)

Look up ?tidyMCMC for more options. I'm afraid it's difficult to get the pMCMC back though. You can get 95% credible intervals are a replacement for those (set conf.int = TRUE).

I have also seen that Ben Bolker is working on a fork/split of broom for mixed models especially, maybe he plans on having a specific tidier for MCMCglmm?

Best,
Pierre.
