Arguments

x

a URI representing a base URL (i.e. https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/knb/d1/mn/v2); or a reference to a dataone::Node instance

Value

the MNode object-

Details

If the 'x' is a string, it is treated as a URI and an attempt to find an associated Member Node at that base URL is attempted. If 'x' is a Node reference, then it is cast to a MNode instance. This typically is used from the getMNode() function from the CNode class, which is the preferred way to retrieve an instance of an MNode.
