Hello all,
The Open Tree of Life project (https://tree.opentreeoflife.org/)
aims at synthesizing current knowledge of the tree of life by
combining taxonomic information and published studies. The project
provides APIs that allow users to interact with the services
associated with the project. For instance, it can retrieve the
phylogenetic tree for a given set of taxa.
With David Winter and Joseph Brown, we have written an R package
that interacts with the APIs to work with the trees and the other
services they provide. We are almost ready to submit to CRAN, but
before doing so I'd greatly appreciate feedback from users willing to
give it a try.
To install it, type:
install.packages(c("devtools", "rncl"))
devtools::install_github("fmichonneau/rotl")
To get started I encourage you to read the vignette:
library(rotl)
vignette("how-to-use-rotl", package = "rotl")
Please send any feedback to me directly by email, or preferably by
opening an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/fmichonneau/rotl/issues
Thanks!
-- François
