tw_get_cached_search: Retrieve cached search

Description

Retrieve cached search

Usage

tw_get_cached_search(
  search,
  type = "item",
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  response_language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  cache = NULL,
  include_search = FALSE,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE
)

Value

If data present in cache, returns a data frame with cached data.

Arguments

search

A string to be searched in Wikidata

type

Defaults to "item". Either "item" or "property".

language

Language to be used for the search. Can be set once per session with tw_set_language(). If not set, defaults to "en". For a full list, see the dedicated Wikimedia page.

response_language

Language to be used for the returned labels and descriptions. Corresponds to the uselang parameter of the MediaWiki API, as described in the official documentation. Can be set once per session with tw_set_language(). If not set, defaults to "en". For a full list, see all available language codes.

cache

Defaults to NULL. If given, it should be given either TRUE or FALSE. Typically set with tw_enable_cache() or tw_disable_cache().

include_search

Logical, defaults to FALSE. If TRUE, the search is returned as an additional column.

cache_connection

Defaults to NULL. If NULL, and caching is enabled, tidywikidatar will use a local sqlite database. A custom connection to other databases can be given (see vignette caching for details).

disconnect_db

Defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, leaves the connection to cache open.

tw_set_cache_folder(path = tempdir())
tw_enable_cache()
tw_create_cache_folder(ask = FALSE)
