SGtraits: a living trait database for the Singapore flora

Welcome! SGtraits is an R package to interface with the functional trait database of the Singapore flora. Please bear in mind that it is still under development, so some metadata and error checking may still be missing.

Installation

SGtraits is still under development. To install the current version from GitHub:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("hrlai/SGtraits", dependencies = TRUE, upgrade = "ask")

# Load the package
library(SGtraits)

Quick start

Currently, it is a wrapper around the austraits package, so you can find most of the documentation and help from their website.

The only function in SGtraits that differ from austraits is load_database, which loads our database:

SGtraits <- load_database(version = "0.0.2", path = "data/SGtraits")

Once you have loaded our trait database, simply follow the rest of the tutorial in austraits to explore the database.
