gen_metadata_value — gen_metadata

Function to search for meta information for a specific value.

Usage

gen_metadata_value(
  code = NULL,
  database = c("all", "genesis", "zensus", "regio"),
  area = c("all", "public", "user"),
  error.ignore = FALSE,
  verbose = TRUE,
  raw = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

code: A character string with a maximum length of 15 characters. Code from a GENESIS, Zensus 2022 or regionalstatistik.de object. Only one code per iteration.
database: Character string. Indicator if the GENESIS ('genesis'), Zensus 2022 ('zensus') or regionalstatistik.de ('regio') database is called. Default option is 'all'.
area: Character string. Indicator from which area of the database the results are called. In general, 'all' is the appropriate solution. Default option is 'all'. Not used for 'statistics'.
error.ignore: Boolean. Indicator if the function should stop if an error occurs or no object for the request is found or if it should produce a token as response. Default option is 'FALSE'.
verbose: Boolean. Indicator if the output of the function should include detailed messages and warnings. Default option is 'TRUE'. Set the parameter to 'FALSE' to suppress additional messages and warnings.
raw: Boolean. Should a non-parsed API response be returned? Default option is 'FALSE'.
...: Additional parameters for the API call. These parameters are only affecting the call itself, no further processing. For more details see vignette("additional_parameter").

Value

A list with all recalled elements from the API. Attributes are added to the data.frame describing the search configuration for the returned output.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Find meta-information of the value with the code "LEDIG"
object <- gen_metadata_val(code = "LEDIG")
} # }
