ons_extra: Access dataset's additional information
Description
Data in each version is broken down by dimensions, and a unique
combination of dimension options in a version can be used to retrieve
observation level data.
Usage
ons_dim(id = NULL, edition = NULL, version = NULL)
ons_dim_opts(
id = NULL,
edition = NULL,
version = NULL,
dimension = NULL,
limit = NULL,
offset = NULL
)
ons_meta(id = NULL, edition = NULL, version = NULL)
Value
A character vector.
Arguments
id
[character] Id that represents a dataset.
edition
[character] A subset of the dataset representing a specific time period.
For some datasets this edition can contain all time periods (all historical data).
The latest version of this is displayed by default.
version
[character] A specific instance of the edition at a point in time. New
versions can be published as a result of corrections, revisions or new data
becoming available.
dimension
[character]
limit
[numeric(1): NULL] Number of records to return. By default is NULL, which
means that the defaults of the ONS API are used. You can set it to a number
to request more (or less) records, and also to Inf to request all records.
offset
[numeric(1): NULL] The position in the dataset of a particular record.
By specifying offset , you retrieve a subset of records starting with
the offset value. Offset normally works with length , which determines
how many records to retrieve starting from the offset.
