Rapidly Import Classifier Results into 'phyloseq'

Import classification results from the 'RDP Classifier' (Ribosomal Database Project),' 'USEARCH sintax,' 'vsearch sintax' and the 'QIIME2' (Quantitative Insights into Microbial Ecology) classifiers into 'phyloseq' tax_table objects.

<!-- badges: end -->

The goal of speedytax is to quickly import classification files
generated with the QIIME2 classifier, the RDP Classifier and the USEARCH
or vsearch sintax classifier as phyloseq tax_table objects.

When importing RDP Classifier and sintax results, the confidence value
can be specified on import. In the case of the QIIME2 classifier the
confidence value must be given when calling the classifier.

All ranks are filled. If a taxa is unclassified at a given rank (*i.e.*
the confidence value at that rank is less than that specified), “uncl\_”
is prepended to the classification at the higher rank and copied to all
lower ranks.

For example, in the example below *Hyphomicrobiales* is classified to
order and to uncl\_*Hyphomicrobiales* at the family and genus levels.

## Installation

You can install the development version of speedytax from
[GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

``` r
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jfq3/speedytax")
```

You can install the latest release from CRAN with:

``` r
install.packages("speedytax")
```

## Example

This is an example of importing a classification file created with the
RDP Classifier:

``` r
library(speedytax)
taxonomy_file <- read_tax_example("rdp_table.tsv")
example_tax_table <- import_rdp_tax_table(in_file = taxonomy_file)
example_tax_table
#> Taxonomy Table:     [10 taxa by 6 taxonomic ranks]:
