# treasure 

[![Project Status: WIP – Initial development is in progress, but there has not yet been a stable, usable release suitable for the public.](https://www.repostatus.org/badges/latest/wip.svg)](https://www.repostatus.org/#wip)

[![R-CMD-check](https://github.com/mrc-ide/treasure/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/mrc-ide/treasure/actions/workflows/R-CMD-check.yaml)

[![Codecov test coverage](https://codecov.io/gh/mrc-ide/treasure/graph/badge.svg)](https://app.codecov.io/gh/mrc-ide/treasure)

The goal of treasure is to provide basic, generic unit-costing help for [malariasimulation](https://mrc-ide.github.io/malariasimulation/).

Functionality is minimal. The key goal of treasure is to be a transparent and

version controlled repository for unit cost estimates that included detailed citations

or references for cost sources.

:warning: Cost estimates are targeted to be as up-to-date as possible. Retrospective

costing of past programmes may therefore require adjustment.

:warning: This is a living package and costs will be updated when new data are available.

As such, be sure to reference and use a specific version if stable costing is

required for a project.

:warning: This is not an exhaustive source of malaria programme costs. For an 

example of a more complete costing exercise please see 

[Patouillard et al](https://gh.bmj.com/content/2/2/e000176), and for a recent

cost and cost-effectiveness review [Conteh et al](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1098301521001479?via%3Dihub).

:warning: When using treasure, please be sure to reference the original sources,

not just the package.

:warning: All costs are in USD$, however the reference year for costs may differ

and costs have not be inflation-adjusted.

## Updates

Updates, reviews and improvements are encouraged via [PRs](https://github.com/mrc-ide/treasure/pulls)!

Updates should be citable from a published source.

They should be in-line with the aim of this package to be a source for generic costing

estimates and therefore should be broadly representative of the costing for a given

intervention, and (ideally) not focussed on a specific location or implementation approach.

Any suggested update via a PR should include:

1. An update to the costing function default value.

2. Updated documentation for the function including a citable source in the references section.

3. Corresponding update to the unit tests for the modified costing function.

## Installation

You can install the development version of treasure from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

``` r

# install.packages("devtools")

devtools::install_github("mrc-ide/treasure")

```
