Specify the parameters for a new IPUMS extract request object to be submitted via the IPUMS API. An extract request contains the specifications required to obtain a particular set of data from an IPUMS collection.
Learn more about the IPUMS API in vignette("ipums-api")
.
These functions produce an ipums_extract
object
with a subclass based on the collection corresponding to the extract request.
The core ipumsr API client tools are designed to handle these objects.
Currently, ipumsr supports extract definitions for the following collections:
IPUMS USA: define_extract_usa()
IPUMS CPS: define_extract_cps()
IPUMS International: define_extract_ipumsi()
IPUMS NHGIS: define_extract_nhgis()
