A released version is now available on CRAN.
You can use the remotes package to install the development version:
Note: You will need a development environment able to compile code C++ to install in this way. MacOS X users will likely need Xcode (see https://cran.r-project.org/). Windows users need Rtools to install this way.
This package wraps the tinyobjloader C++ library available at https://github.com/tinyobjloader/tinyobjloader. Kudos to its author, Syoyo Fujita!
tinyobjloader is released under a liberal 2 clause BSD license, which this package therefore inherits.
