auth_get: GET a resource with authenticated credentials if available.

In dataone: R Interface to the DataONE REST API

GET a resource with authenticated credentials if available.

Description

Retrieve the data at a URL using an HTTP GET request using authentication credentials provided in a client certificate. Authenticated access depends on the suggested openssl package. If the openssl package is not installed, then the request falls back to an unauthenticated request, which may fail due to insufficient permissions. Configuration options for httr/RCurl can be passed using the normal config() mechanisms to generate a config option. Use httr_options() to see a complete list of available options.

Usage

auth_get(url, nconfig = config(), node, path = NULL)

Arguments

url	The URL to be accessed via authenticated GET.
nconfig	HTTP configuration options as used by curl, defaults to empty list
node	The D1Node object that the request will be made to.
path	Path to a file to write object to

Value

the response object from the method
