edit_apsim_replace_soil_profile: Edit APSIM 'Classic' file with a replaced soil profile

In apsimx: Inspect, Read, Edit and Run 'APSIM' "Next Generation" and 'APSIM' Classic

Edit APSIM ‘Classic’ file with a replaced soil profile

Description

Edits an APSIM Classic simulation by replacing the soil profile

Usage

edit_apsim_replace_soil_profile(
  file = "",
  src.dir = ".",
  wrt.dir = NULL,
  soil.profile = NULL,
  swim = NULL,
  soilwat = NULL,
  initialwater = NULL,
  edit.tag = "-edited",
  overwrite = FALSE,
  verbose = TRUE,
  root
)

Arguments

file	name of the .apsim file to be edited
src.dir	source directory
wrt.dir	writing directory
soil.profile	a soil profile object with class ‘soil_profile’
swim	list with SWIM specific parameters
soilwat	list with SoilWat specific parameters
initialwater	list with InitialWater specific parameters
edit.tag	default edit tag ‘-edited’
overwrite	default FALSE
verbose	default TRUE. Will print messages indicating what was done.
root	supply the node postion in the case of multiple simulations such as factorials.

Details

This function is designed to batch replace the whole soil in an APSIM simulation.

Value

writes an APSIM file to disk with the supplied soil profile

Note

There is no such thing as a default soil, carefully build the profile for each simulation. This function replaces values and it can grow an XML node, but it cannot edit a property which is not present in the original file.

Examples

sp <- apsimx_soil_profile(nlayers = 20,
                          crops = c("Barley", "Chickpea", "Lucerne", 
                          "Maize", "Perennial Grass", "Sorghum", 
                          "Wheat", "Millet"))

extd.dir <- system.file("extdata", package = "apsimx")

## Writing to a temp directory
tmp.dir <- tempdir()
edit_apsim_replace_soil_profile("Millet.apsim", soil.profile = sp, 
                                edit.tag = "-newsoil",
                                src.dir = extd.dir, 
                                wrt.dir = tmp.dir)
                                
inspect_apsim("Millet-newsoil.apsim", src.dir = tmp.dir,
              node = "Soil", soil.child = "Water")
