move (version 3.2.2)

searchMovebankStudies: Search for a study on Movebank

Description

This function searches for studies within Movebank by a specified keyword or phrase.

Usage

searchMovebankStudies(x, login)

Arguments

x

a character string to search within the Movebank study names

login

a MovebankLogin object, if empty you'll be asked to enter your username and password

Value

The function returns a character vector of study names.

Details

The search function searches explicitly for the entered phrase. If you for example type 'Goose' it will not show you studies including 'goose'. So rather search for 'oose' to find both.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# obtain a login
login <- movebankLogin()
# returns all studies that include this exact term: "MPIO"
searchMovebankStudies(x="MPIO", login=login) 
# }
