Generate STICS sta xml file(s) from a template or an input file

gen_sta_xml(
  param_df,
  file = NULL,
  out_dir,
  stics_version = "latest",
  param_table = lifecycle::deprecated(),
  sta_in_file = lifecycle::deprecated(),
  out_path = lifecycle::deprecated()
)

Arguments

param_df: A table (df, tibble) containing the values of the parameters to use (see details)
file: Path of a sta xml file to be used as a template. Optional, if not provided, the function will use a standard template depending on the STICS version.
out_dir: Path of the directory where to generate the file(s).
stics_version: Name of the STICS version. Optional, used if the file argument is not provided. In this case the function uses a standard template associated to the STICS version.
param_table: param_table is no longer supported, use param_df instead.
sta_in_file: sta_in_file is no longer supported, use file instead.
out_path: out_path is no longer supported, use out_dir instead.

Value

None

Details

Please see get_stics_versions_compat() for the full list of STICS versions that can be used for the argument stics_version.

param_df is a data.frame with the following format:

Sta_name	zr	NH3ref	latitude	patm	aclim
climatex_sta.xml	2.5	0	49	1000	20
climatex2_sta.xml	2.8	0	49	1000	20
climatex3_sta.xml	2.2	0	49	1000	20

The first column gives the sta file name (to be generated), all following columns give the parameter value to put in the file, and each line denotes a separate sta file (for e.g. several USMs).

The first column name must contain the keyword sta or Sta or STA as a prefix to be detected (as shown in the table extract above).

If not given (the default, NULL), the function returns the template as is.

Examples

xl_path <- download_usm_xl(file = "inputs_stics_example.xlsx")
#> Warning: inputs_stics_example.xlsx already exists in  /var/folders/1y/56hdyx6x0_jb18k7b4ys9b6w0000gn/T//Rtmp6TMon6 
#> Consider to set overwrite = TRUE to overwrite (it | them )
sta_param_df <- read_params_table(file = xl_path, sheet_name = "Station")
gen_sta_xml(out_dir = tempdir(), param_df = sta_param_df)
