Generate a table of state variables, parameters, and initial values

The model needs to adhere to the structure specified by the modelbuilder package. Models built using the modelbuilder package automatically have the right structure. A user can also build a model list structure themselves following the modelbuilder specifications. If the user provides a file name, this file needs to be an RDS file and contain a valid modelbuilder model structure.

Usage

generate_tables(mbmodel, location = NULL, filename = NULL)

Arguments

mbmodel

modelbuilder model structure, either as list object or file name

location

a path to save the simulation code to. If NULL, defaults to current directory.

filename

a filename to save the simulation code to. If NULL, a default is generated (recommended).

Value

The function does not return anything Instead, it writes a CSV file into the specified directory; the default nams of the files are parameter_table_model$title.csv and parameter_table_model$title.csv; if the user specifies a file name, it will be that name

Details

This function takes as input a modelbuilder model and exports a CSV table of parameter/variable names, definitions, and initial values.
