motus

R package for users of data from http://motus.org

Users: the 'master' branch is what you want. You can install it from R by doing:

    install.packages("devtools")              ## if you haven't already done this

    install_github("motusWTS/motus@master")   ## the lastest stable version

Developers: the 'staging' branch is for work-in-progress. Install it with

    install.packages("devtools")               ## if you haven't already done this

    install_github("motusWTS/motus@staging")   ## the development version

Usage vignette

A brief sketch (of motusClient usage) is here

What's working so far:

2017 Sep 25

• tagme() / tellme() and supporting functions are now in the motusClient package, which is automatically installed from github the first time you do library(motus) after installing the motus package. If automatic installation of motusClient fails, you can install it directly like so:

install_github("motusWTS/motusClient")

• tagme() - for updating local copies of receiver or tag project detection databases
• tellme() - for asking how much data will need to be transferred by the corresponding tagme() call

The latest version of the data server that works with this package is now running on a new box, but its database is only populated with data from 4 (!) receivers. Raw files from other receivers will be re-run with the latest version of the tag finder and added to this database. Only those users willing to wrestle with alpha code and not actually interested in getting their data should be using this package for now.
