update.parameters: Run the hydrological model COSERO

In freysimon/TigR: A collection of more or less usefull R functions

Run the hydrological model COSERO

Description

Update the paramters of the hydrological model COSERO via a shell command

Usage

update.parameters(
  path,
  saveold = TRUE,
  batchfile = NA,
  parafile = NULL,
  new.parameters,
  show.output = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

path	Path to the executable of COSERO.
saveold	logical. Save the old parameter file?
batchfile	character string. Use a predefined batchfile for updating COSEROs parameters or use the standard setting (see details). In the latter case, set batchfile = NA.
parafile	chracter string. Path to the existing parameter file. If NULL "./input/Parameter_COSERO.par" is assumed.
new.parameters	character string. Path to the file containing the new parameter matrix.
show.output	logical. Show the console output of COSERO in the console of R?
...	Further arguments passed to shell

Details

update.parameters calls a batchfile via the command shell. In this batchfile, COSERO is fed with the necessary user input. The user can provide a batchfile (e.g. with specific commands to COSERO) or let update.parameters write the batchfile itself. In the first case, batchfile must not be NA but a path to the user defined batchfile. In the latter case, both the batchfile and the necessary commandsfile are deleted again after the excecution.

path must be set to a full path to the executable of COSERO including the exe itself. If the exe is not specified, "COSERO.exe" is assumed.

Value

Returns nothing to R but executes the model COSERO
