Adding scriptuRs? #12

Closed EmilHvitfeldt closed 5 years ago

EmilHvitfeldt commented 5 years ago

@andrewheiss is there anything included in your scriptuRs package that isn't in the sacred package? ๐Ÿ˜„

andrewheiss commented 5 years ago

Other than the lds_scriptures() and kjv_bible() functions, nope. It's the same data source.

EmilHvitfeldt commented 5 years ago

Okay, I think I'm going add it anyways, it doesn't (yet) hurt to have some overlap.

andrewheiss commented 5 years ago

Yeah, I've been considering how to handle that. I don't want to parallel maintain quRan and sacred, but it'd be nice to have the Quran in sacred. Perhaps making some sort of central sacred text package with https://github.com/mkearney/pkgverse (รก la tidyverse) that installs all these other packages (like rperseus, scriptuRs, quRan, sacred, etc.) simultaneously would be helpful. That way they can all be maintained separately, but installed at the same time?

EmilHvitfeldt commented 5 years ago

That might work, but could also turn into quite a pkgverse as more and more packages are added (and how do you decide that is pkgverse worthy?). I feel like having this repo being a central hub of information works okay as of now.

how often would you want to combine multiple data packages?

EmilHvitfeldt commented 5 years ago

I have added this package as it includes more metadata then then sacred package

andrewheiss commented 5 years ago

Oh, I mean a pkgverse thing for just sacred texts, not everything here in R-text-data :)
