A module for parsing eBird "BarChart" histogram files.
Easy to set up, either include the /dist/histogramr.min.js
in your web application, or for a node.js application:
npm install ebird-histogramr
... then include as an import
or require()
depending on your JavaScript version setup.
For example, here's how the unit test uses it:
import histogramr from 'ebird-histogramr';
const file = fs.readFileSync('src/example.BarChart.txt', 'utf8');
const histogram = histogramr(file);
expect(histogram.emit().sampleSize.January[3]).toBe(7); // sample size in 4th quarter of Jan is 6.0
expect(histogram.emit().taxaCount).toBe(169); // 169 is the total taxa count
// First quarter of January sees a 50% occcurrence of Canada Goose
expect(histogram.emit().taxaList['Canada Goose'].January[0]).toBe(0.5);
// The 4th quarter of December has a 14.285% occurrence
expect(histogram.emit().taxaList['Canada Goose'].December[3]).toBe(0.14285714285714285);
// 4th quarter of January see a 28.571% occurrence of House Sparrow:
expect(histogram.emit().taxaList['House Sparrow'].January[3]).toBe(0.2857142857142857);
eBird is a real-time, online bird checklist resource by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. For more information, see http://help.ebird.org/.
Updated parser to work correctly with changes eBird made to the histogram.
