Details

pin_find() allows you to discover new resources or retrieve pins you've previously created with pin().

The pins package comes with a CRAN packages board which allows searching all CRAN packages; however, you can add additional boards to search from like Kaggle, Github and RStudio Connect.

For 'local' and 'packages' boards, the 'text' parameter searches the title and description of a pin using a regular expression. Other boards search in different ways, most of them are just partial matches, please refer to their documentation to understand how other boards search for pins.

Once you find a pin, you can retrieve with pin_get("pin-name").

Examples

# NOT RUN {
library(pins)

# retrieve local pins
pin_find(board = "local")

# search local pins related to 'cars'
pin_find("cars", board = "local")

# search pins related to 'seattle' in the 'packages' board
pin_find("seattle", board = "packages")

# retrieve 'hpiR/seattle_sales' pin
pin_get("hpiR/seattle_sales")

# search pins related to 'london' in the 'packages' board
pin_find("london", board = "packages")

# retrieve 'bsamGP/London.Mortality' pin
pin_get("bsamGP/London.Mortality")
# }
