cran version

An R package for identifying locations to visit in order to increase your species list count. The package relies on the eBird API to query for recent observations and compare them to a user's species list. The lists can be life lists, year lists, county lists, etc.

Installation

You can install lifeR from CRAN via:

r install.packages("lifeR")

Alternatively, you can download the development version from GitHub with the help of the remotes package:

r install.packages("remotes") remotes::install_github(repo = "jcoliver/lifeR")

If you install from GitHub and want to have the introductory vignette included in the installation, then pass build_vignettes = TRUE in the call to install_github():

r install.packages("remotes") remotes::install_github(repo = "jcoliver/lifeR", build_vignettes = TRUE)

And load the package with library

r library("lifeR")

A minimalist example

```r

Location of the file with your year list

listfile <- "~/Desktop/ebirdworldyear2021_list.csv"

Read the list of species into memory

userlist <- read.csv(file = listfile)

Extract the common names of species from your list

myspecies <- userlist$Common

Read in eBird API key from a text file; replace the argument to file with

the actual location of your eBird key file

key <- scan(file = "ebird-api-key.txt", what = "character")

A single center requires vector of coordinates

Change these, unless you really want to go birding near McCall, Idaho

locs <- c(45, -116) SitesReport(centers = locs, ebirdkey = key, speciesseen = my_species) ```
