R interface for the New York Times API
The goal of rnytapi is to provide easy and fast tools to access and collect data using the New York Times API.
## Install the current development version from GitHub
if(!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("jaeyk/rnytapi", dependencies = TRUE)
The package's current main use case is to collect the NYT articles on a particular subject published during a specific period.
A single page output from the search. The default page is the first page. You can overwrite it by passing a new value for the page argument.
library(rnytapi)
df <- get_content(term = "muslim+muslims",
begin_date = "19960911",
end_date = "20060911",
key = "<insert your key>")All results from the search. The function sleeps 6 seconds between calls to respect the NYT API call limit. Depending on the scope of the search, getting the results will take a substantial amount of time.
library(rnytapi)
df <- extract_all(term = "muslim+muslims",
begin_date = "19960911",
end_date = "20060911",
key = "<insert your key>")
