Download observations or info from a project — get_minka_obs

Retrieve observations from a particular Minka project. This function can be used to get either observations or information from a project by project name or ID.

Usage

get_minka_obs_project(
  grpid = NULL,
  type = c("info", "observations"),
  raw = FALSE
)

Arguments

grpid: Name of the group as an Minka slug or group ID.
type: Character, either "observations" or "info". "observations" returns all observations, and "info" returns project details similar to what you can find on a project's page.
raw: Logical. If TRUE and searching for project info, returns the raw output of parsed JSON for that project. Otherwise just some basic information is returned as a list.

Details

A Minka slug is usually the project name as a single string with words separated by hyphens. For instance, the project "biomarato-2022-girona" has a slug of "world-oceans-week-2022", which you can find by searching projects on Minka and looking at the project's page's URL.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
 get_minka_obs_project(8, type = "observations")
 get_minka_obs_project("urbamarbio", type="info",raw=FALSE)
} # }
