hansard (version 0.5.0)

lords_attendance: Imports data on House of Lords attendance.

Description

Imports data on House of Lords attendance. Please note that the attendance data is not as tidy as some of the others that are accessible through this API, and so additional work to prepare this data in a way that you want may be required.

Usage

lords_attendance(session_id = NULL, start_date = "1900-01-01",
  end_date = Sys.Date(), extra_args = NULL, tidy = TRUE,
  tidy_style = "snake_case")
hansard_lords_attendance(session_id = NULL, start_date = "1900-01-01",
  end_date = Sys.Date(), extra_args = NULL, tidy = TRUE,
  tidy_style = "snake_case")

The ID of the House of Lords session. If NULL, returns a list of all sessions. Defaults to NULL.

start_date

The earliest date to include in the tibble. Defaults to '1900-01-01'. Accepts character values in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format, and objects of class Date, POSIXt, POSIXct, POSIXlt or anything else than can be coerced to a date with as.Date().

The latest date to include in the tibble. Defaults to current system date. Defaults to '1900-01-01'. Accepts character values in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format, and objects of class Date, POSIXt, POSIXct, POSIXlt or anything else than can be coerced to a date with as.Date().

Additional parameters to pass to API. Defaults to NULL.

tidy

Fix the variable names in the tibble to remove special characters and superfluous text, and converts the variable names to a consistent style. Defaults to TRUE.
