stackSp: Join species files

In Dmirandae/geocleaMT-1: A Package to Clean/Test Georeferenced Data

Description

Join all independent files into a single multi-species file.

Usage

stackSp(data = NULL, rd.frmt = "readRDS", path = NULL, save.name = NULL,
  save.staking.in = NULL, wrt.frmt = "saveRDS")

Arguments

data	Vector of characters. Name of the input file.
rd.frmt	Vector of characters. The file format to read. By default it will be read as a R object using the 'readRDS' argument, but it can be read as plain text using the 'readTXT' argument. See details.
path	Vector of characters. Path to the input file.
save.name	Vector of characters. Name of the output file.
save.staking.in	Vector of characters. Path to the output file.
wrt.frmt	Vector of characters. Format to save output file. By default it will be written as a R object using 'saveRDS' argument, but it can be saved as plain text using 'saveTXT' argument. See details.

Details

The headers of the input file must follow the Darwin Core standard [1]. The user can see the guide using data('ID_DarwinCore) command. For more details about the formats to read and/or write, see readAndWrite function.

Value

The output file will be saved with all species concatenated.
