The goal of comunista is to clean up accents from municipality names of Chile and gets them in proper format to make joining datasets by municipality easier.

Installation

You can install the development version of comunista from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("lhersko/comunista")

If you use pacman, you can install it using:

# install.packages("pacman")
# library(pacman)
p_load_gh("lhersko/comunista")

Example

To use the clean_comunas() function first specify your data frame name and then the variable that contains municipality names in quotations. For example:

library(comunista)
df <- data.frame(comunas=c("ñuñoa", "Peñalolén", "PEñaflor", "Las condes"))
clean_comunas(df, "comunas")

To use the code_comunas() function first specify your data frame name and then the variable that contains municipality names in quotations. For example:

library(comunista)
df <- data.frame(comunas=c("ñuñoa", "Peñalolén", "PEñaflor", "Las condes"))
df_clean <- clean_comunas(df, "comunas")
code_comunas(df_clean, "comunas")

It is strongly suggested that you run clean_comunas() on your data before running code_comunas().

To use the code_regiones() function first specify your data frame name and then the variable that contains municipality names in quotations. For example:

library(comunista)
df <- data.frame(comunas=c("ñuñoa", "Peñalolén", "PEñaflor", "Las condes"))
clean_df <- clean_comunas(df, "comunas")
code_regiones(clean_df, "comunas")
