Set a standard path for a pipeline output file associated with a species

The datapipeline produces many output files. This function creates an standard output file path for those files that are associated with a particular species. There might be instances where we need name that deviates from the standard. We need to handle these exceptions case by case. Those files that are not associated with a particular species follow different standards.

Usage

setSpOutFilePath(prefix, config, years, sp_code, ext)

Arguments

prefix

A character string with the prefix that will appear at the beginning of the name. This is what distinguishes files within the species directory.

config

A list with pipeline configuration parameters. See configPipeline.

years

Character string with years to include in the name.

sp_code

SAFRING reference number of the species we want to analyze.

ext

The extension of the output file. Note that we must add the trailing '.' to the extension.

Value

A character string with the path to/for a pipeline output file
