Here is the code:

util_beta_param_estimate <- function(.x, .auto_gen_with_empirical = TRUE){
  
  # Tidyeval ----
  x_term <- as.numeric(.x)
  minx <- min(x_term)
  maxx <- max(x_term)
  
  # Checks ----
  if (!is.numeric(x_term)){
    rlang::abort(
      "The '.x' parameter must be numeric."
    )
  }
  
  if (minx < 0 | maxx > 1){
    rlang::inform(
      message = "For the beta distribution, its mean 'mu' should be 0 < mu < 1. 
      The data will therefore be scaled to enforce this.",
      use_cli_format = TRUE
    )
    x_term <- healthyR.ai::hai_scale_zero_one_vec(x_term)
    scaled <- TRUE
  } else {
    rlang::inform(
      message = "There was no need to scale the data.",
      use_cli_format = TRUE
    )
    x_term <- x_term
    scaled <- FALSE
  }
  
  # Get params ----
  n <- length(x_term)
  m <- mean(x_term, na.rm = TRUE)
  s2 <- var(x_term, na.rm = TRUE)
  
  # wikipedia generic
  alpha <- m * n
  beta <- sqrt(((1- m) * n)^2)
  
  # https://itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/eda/section3/eda366h.htm
  p <- m * (((m * (1- m))/s2) - 1)
  q <- (1 - m) * (((m * (1 - m))/s2) - 1)
  
  if (p < 0){
    p <- sqrt((p)^2)
  }
  
  if (q < 0){
    q <- sqrt((q)^2)
  }
  
  # EnvStats
  term <- ((m * (1 - m))/(((n - 1)/n) * s2)) - 1
  esshape1 <- m * term
  esshape2 <- (1 - m) * term
  
  # Return Tibble ----
  if (.auto_gen_with_empirical){
    te <- tidy_empirical(.x = x_term)
    td <- tidy_beta(.n = n, .shape1 = p, .shape2 = q)
    combined_tbl <- tidy_combine_distributions(te, td)
  }
  
  ret <- dplyr::tibble(
    dist_type = rep('Beta', 3),
    samp_size = rep(n, 3),
    min = rep(minx, 3),
    max = rep(maxx, 3),
    mean = rep(m, 3),
    variance = rep(s2, 3),
    method = c("Bayes", "NIST_MME", "EnvStats_MME"),
    shape1 = c(alpha, p, esshape1),
    shape2 = c(beta, q, esshape2),
    shape_ratio = c(alpha/beta, p/q, esshape1/esshape2)
  )
  
  # Return ----
  attr(ret, "tibble_typle") <- "beta_parameter_estimation"
  attr(ret, "x_term") <- .x
  attr(ret, "scaled") <- scaled
  attr(ret, "n") <- n
  
  if (.auto_gen_with_empirical){
    output <- list(
      combined_tbl,
      ret
    )
  } else {
    output <- ret
  }
  
  return(output)
  
}

Here is a working example:

alpha <- 2.5
beta <- 0.5
tb <- tidy_beta(.n = 32, .shape1 = alpha, .shape2 = beta, .num_sims = 1) %>%
  group_by(x) %>% # groups by each observation, if sim_number then takes mean of the sim
  summarise(y = mean(y)) %>%
  ungroup() %>%
  pull(y)
> params <- util_beta_param_estimate(tb)
There was no need to scale the data.
