list_datasets: List datasets (SWORD)

Description

List datasets in a SWORD (possibly unpublished) Dataverse

Usage

list_datasets(
  dataverse,
  key = Sys.getenv("DATAVERSE_KEY"),
  server = Sys.getenv("DATAVERSE_SERVER"),
  ...
)

Value

A list.

Arguments

dataverse

A Dataverse alias or ID number, or an object of class “dataverse”, perhaps as returned by service_document.

key

A character string specifying a Dataverse server API key. If one is not specified, functions calling authenticated API endpoints will fail. Keys can be specified atomically or globally using Sys.setenv("DATAVERSE_KEY" = "examplekey").

server

A character string specifying a Dataverse server. Multiple Dataverse installations exist, with "dataverse.harvard.edu" being the most major. The server can be defined each time within a function, or it can be set as a default via an environment variable. To set a default, run Sys.setenv("DATAVERSE_SERVER" = "dataverse.harvard.edu") or add DATAVERSE_SERVER = "dataverse.harvard.edu in one's .Renviron file (usethis::edit_r_environ()), with the appropriate domain as its value.

...

Additional arguments passed to an HTTP request function, such as GET, POST, or DELETE.

Details

This function is used to list datasets in a given Dataverse. It is part of the SWORD API, which is used to upload data to a Dataverse server. This means this can be used to view unpublished Dataverses and Datasets.
