AddListRemoveAttrDefLabelGroup {emuR}

Add / List / Remove labelGroup to / of / from attributeDefinition of emuDB

Description

Add / List / Remove label group to / of / from a specific attribute definition. This label group can be used as a short hand to reference groups of labels specific to an attribute definition (compared to global label groups that are added by add_labelGroup) in a query. A common example would be to add a label group for something like the phonetic category of nasals to be able reference them as "nasals" in a query. For more information on the structural elements of an emuDB see vignette(emuDB).

add_attrDefLabelGroup(
  emuDBhandle,
  levelName,
  attributeDefinitionName,
  labelGroupName,
  labelGroupValues
)

list_attrDefLabelGroups(emuDBhandle, levelName, attributeDefinitionName)

remove_attrDefLabelGroup(
