# list of supported interactions types
get_interaction_types()

# all known prey names and locations (latitude, longitude) where birds (Aves) preyed on rodents (Rodentia) in California
obs <- get_interactions_by_taxa(sourcetaxon = "Aves", bbox=c(-125.53344800000002,32.750323,-114.74487299999998,41.574361), targettaxon = "Rodentia", returnobservations=TRUE)
locations <- cbind(obs$target_taxon_name, obs$latitude, obs$longitude)

tests

Tests can be executed using devtools package.

# workdir should be rglobi repo root directory (check with getwd())
# install dependencies 
devtools::install('.')
devtools::test()
