rvn_rvi_connections: Generate Hydrological process connections list

Description

This routine reads in a hydrologic process list from rvn_rvi_read and generates the list of hydrologic process connections.

Usage

rvn_rvi_connections(
  rvi,
  ProcConDataFile = system.file("extdata", "RavenProcessConnections.dat", package =
    "RavenR")
)

Value

Returns a list with two items:

connections

a a dataframe of all of the process connections Includes the following data columns: process type, algorithm, 'from' compartment, 'to' compartment, and conditional

data object generated from the rvn_rvi_read routine

ProcConDataFile

(optional) path to RavenProcesConnections.dat file
