Description
R Interface to Experigen.
Description
Provides convenience functions to communicate with an Experigen server: Experigen (<http://github.com/aquincum/experigen>) is an online framework for creating linguistic experiments, and it stores the results on a dedicated server. This package can be used to retrieve the results from the server, and it is especially helpful with registered experiments, as authentication with the server has to happen.

Rexperigen
An R interface for downloading results from an Experigen server. Works with the "classic" server that is currently running on db.experigen.org as well, but its main advantage is that it helps a lot with the new functions of the newer version of the Experigen server. Most importantly, it helps with registration of experimenters, registration of experiments and accessing their data.
Setup
Key setup functions are:
setExperigenServer: sets the URL of the server where the data is stored. The default currently isdb.phonologist.orgsetExperigenCredentials(server version >=2 only): sets the experimenter username and password for access to registered dataregisterExperiment,removeRegistration,getRegisteredExperiments(server version >=2 only): functions helping with registration of experiments, ie. limiting access to the given experiment to yourself. They do what's on their label.
Download
Key download functions are:
getUsers: lists the userCodes and the number of records for each usergetDestinations(server version >=2 only): lists the destination files available for each experimentdownloadExperiment: downloads the results of a destination file for a given experiment into a data frame.
