Examples

# Nominal(text):
## Not run: create_attribute(attribute_name = "site_id",
                          attribute_definition = "Site id as used in sites table",
                          measurement_scale = EMLaide::measurement_scale$nominal,
                          domain= "text",
                          definition = "Site id as used in sites table.")
## End(Not run)

# Nominal(enumerated):
code_def_1 = list(code = "yes", definition = "has been captured previously")
code_def_2 = list(code = "no", definition = "has not been captured previously")
code_definition = list(code_def_1, code_def_2)
## Not run: create_attribute(attribute_name = "Recap", 
                          attribute_definition = "Has the Turtle been captured and tagged previously",
                          measurement_scale = EMLaide::measurement_scale$nominal, 
                          domain = "enumerated",
                          definition = code_definition)
