get_argentinian_holidays: Get Official Holidays in Argentina for a Given Year

Description

This function retrieves the list of official holidays in Argentina for a specified year. The data is obtained from the public API at https://api.argentinadatos.com/v1/feriados/. You can append the desired year at the end of the URL. For example: https://api.argentinadatos.com/v1/feriados/2024/ If no year is provided, the function returns holidays for the current year.

Usage

get_argentinian_holidays(year = NULL)

Value

A data frame with the following columns:

• fecha: Date of the holiday (character in YYYY-MM-DD format).

• tipo: Type of holiday (e.g., "inamovible", "trasladable").

• nombre: Name or reason of the holiday.

Arguments

year

An integer representing the year (between 2016 and 2025). Defaults to the current year.

Details

The function sends a GET request to the ArgentinaDatos API and converts the JSON response into a structured data frame. It validates the input year and falls back to the current year if none is specified. If the API does not return a 200 status code, the function will return NULL and emit a message.
