monthlyIndices: Create timestamps or monthly indices from CHIRPS files

In environmentalinformatics-marburg/heavyRain: Download and Pre-Process CHIRPS and TRMM Rainfall Data Sets in R

Description

Extract time information or, based upon this, monthly indices from regularly named CHIRPS files (compressed or decompressed).

Usage

monthlyIndices(x, pos1 = 13L, pos2 = 22L, timestamp = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x	'character'. Input filename(s).
pos1, pos2	'integer'. The first and last element of the date string in 'x', defaults to the CHIRPS naming convention; see substr.
timestamp	'logical'. If TRUE, an actual timestamp (formatted according to ...) is returned rather than a vector of indices.
...	Further arguments passed on to strftime.

Value

An 'integer' vector with unique monthly indices or, if timestamp = TRUE, a character vector with formatted timestamps.
