Overview

About

Maintained by Florian D. SchneiderCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗

Assistance for handling ecological trait data and applying the Ecological Trait-Data Standard terminology (Schneider et al. 2019 doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13288). There are two major use cases: (1) preparation of own trait datasets for publication, and (2) harmonizing trait datasets from different sources by re-formatting them into a unified format. See 'traitdataform' website for full documentation.

Changes in 0.6.8

fix test value for changed dependencies: new taxon names on gbif.org.
add suppdata to NAMESPACE

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/traitdataform/traitdataform_0.6.8.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "traitdataform_0.6.8.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.6.8) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ecologicaltraitdata/traitdataform")

Development version from ecologicaltraitdata/traitdataform. Installs pak first if it is not already available.
