get_manufacturer_info: Get Manufacturer Info with Smart Matching

Description

Search for a manufacturer by name and return performance statistics. Uses fuzzy matching to handle partial names, typos, and case-insensitive searches.

Usage

get_manufacturer_info(
  manufacturer,
  series = "all",
  type = "summary",
  interactive = TRUE
)

Value

A tibble of manufacturer statistics (format depends on type), or invisible(NULL) if no match is found.

Arguments

manufacturer

Character string of the manufacturer name to search for.

series

Character string ("cup", "nxs", "truck", "all") or a pre-loaded data frame. Default is "all".

type

Character string specifying the return format:

"summary"

Career totals grouped by series (Seasons, Races, Wins, Best Finish, Avg Finish, Laps Raced, Laps Led).

"season"

Season-by-season breakdown (Races, Wins, Best Finish, Avg Finish, Laps Raced, Laps Led).

"all"

Complete race-by-race results.

interactive

Logical. When TRUE (default) and the R session is interactive, prompts the user to select from multiple matches. When FALSE, silently uses the first match.
