Retrieve available metagenomes from NCBI Genbank.
NCBI Genbank allows users to download entire metagenomes of several
metagenome projects. This function downloads available metagenomes that can
then be downloaded via getMetaGenomes.
getMetaGenomes(name, path = file.path("_ncbi_downloads", "metagenome"))metagenome name retrieved by listMetaGenomes.
a character string specifying the location (a folder) in
which the corresponding metagenome shall be stored.
Default is path = file.path("_ncbi_downloads","metagenome").
if (FALSE) {
# Frist, retrieve a list of available metagenomes
listMetaGenomes()
# Now, retrieve the 'human gut metagenome'
getMetaGenomes(name = "human gut metagenome")
}
