How to resolve error "package ‘treeshap’ is not available for this version of R"?

Question

if I try to run the treeshap function I get the following error

> TreeShapVal = treeshap(xgboost.unify(modelXG, x), x, interactions = FALSE, verbose = TRUE)
Error in treeshap(xgboost.unify(modelXG, x), x, interactions = FALSE,  : 
  could not find function "treeshap"

If I try to install the treeshap package then I get the following errors

> library(treeshap)
Error in library(treeshap) : there is no package called ‘treeshap’
> install.packages("treeshap")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/BootMR/AppData/Local/R/win-library/4.3’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
  package ‘treeshap’ is not available for this version of R

A version of this package for your version of R might be available elsewhere,

I am using RStudio 2023.06. I downloaded and installed RTools last week. I have no idea how to resolve and get the treeshap package to work?

There is no package on CRAN called treeshap, either current or in the archive. You will need to install from the github for the package. –

devtools::install_github('ModelOriented/treeshap')
