The goal of epipipe is to document how to build epidemiological pipelines. The package contains a set of vignettes which provide explanation of reading epidemiological data into R, cleaning steps, and applying epi-methods to the data.
The aim is that these vignettes provide modular chunks that explain epidemiological steps and help user build custom analysis pipelines but copying and pasting together the examples we provide.
epipipe provides and documents "glue" code that links together R packages and methods that are not natively interoperable.
See the Get Started vignette for an explanation of how the package works and which vignettes can be combined to create an analysis pipeline.
The epipipe package is a complementary resource to the The Epidemiological R Handbook.
You can install the development version of epipipe from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("joshwlambert/epipipe")This package is still in early-stage development, and there are no example available yet.
