A number of examples in README.md no longer valid

[wetlandscapes]

Hi, First, thank you very much for all the hard work you've put into this product. I'm just starting to use the EML package to document my own data. As such I've been looking over the README.md file and notice there are at least a few code examples that seem to no longer work. For example:

attributes <- read.table(system.file("extdata/hf205_attributes.csv", package = "EML")). Looking through the system files associated with the package I see that there is no "extdata" directory, but there is an "examples" directory. Similarly, there is no "hf205_attributes.csv" file.

I think either re-writing the README file, or adding these files back in, would help new users like myself better understand how this code works.

Thanks!

@wetlandscapes Perhaps you are using the version from CRAN? The README shown here corresponds only to the current version on GitHub, you'll need to do remotes::install_github("ropensci/EML") and possibly restart your R session first.

(If you browse the system files on GitHub, you'll note there is indeed an extdata dir, eg: https://github.com/ropensci/EML/tree/master/inst/extdata). HTH!

Ah, okay. That explains the large version difference on ropensci/github versus my package list. Maybe it is worth adding the installation line (remotes::install_github("ropensci/EML") to the README?

Thanks for your quick response. I greatly appreciate your efforts!

good idea!

also we're really overdue for a new CRAN release so stay tuned for that.

Added to 2.1.0 milestone, but if its already been fixed then just close the issue.
