search

Provides an R interface for the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA)
API (see <http://www.bea.gov/API/bea_web_service_api_user_guide.htm> for
more information) that serves two core purposes -
1. To Extract/Transform/Load data [beaGet()] from the BEA API as R-friendly
formats in the user's work space [transformation done by default in beaGet()
can be modified using optional parameters; see, too, bea2List(), bea2Tab()].
2. To enable the search of descriptive meta data [beaSearch()].
Other features of the library exist mainly as intermediate methods
or are in early stages of development.
Important Note - You must have an API key to use this library.

beaSearch: Search a selection of indexed BEA data table names, series labels, and series codes.
