comp-fun: Complementary Functions

In legco: R Bindings for the Hong Kong Legislative Council API

Description

This set of complementary functions are wrappers around the database functions that facilitate the use of the LegCo API or return data from the API in a more usable form. All complementary functions have a prefix of search_.

Functions

Complementary Functions:

• search_committee: Search LegCo committees

• search_member: Search LegCo members

• search_voting_record: Search Voting Record in LegCo meetings

• search_question: Search full text of question put to the government by LegCo members

Notes

The complementary functions work by calling a number of database functions and combining their output, meaning that a function call usually involves multiple API calls. Use with caution to prevent reaching the API’s rate limit too quickly.
