Get Planning Areas (All)

Description

This function is a wrapper for the Planning Area Polygons API. It returns the data either in raw format or a combined sf object.

Usage

get_planning_areas(token, year = NULL, return_spatial = FALSE)

Arguments

token

User's API token. This can be retrieved using get_token

year

Optional, check documentation for valid options. Invalid requests will are ignored by the API.

return_spatial

Optional, whether to return the result as a sf tibble instead of JSON object. Default value is FALSE

Value

If the parameter read is not specified, the function returns a raw JSON object with planning names and geojson string vectors.

If return_spatial = TRUE, the function returns a single "sf" tibble with 2 columns: "name" (name of planning area) and "geometry", which contains the simple features.

If an error occurs, the function throws an error with the API error message and status code.

Note

If the user specifies return_spatial = TRUE but does not have the sf package installed, the function will return the raw JSON and print a warning message.

Examples

# returns raw JSON object
## Not run: get_planning_areas(token)
## Not run: get_planning_areas(token, 2008)

# returns dataframe of class "sf"
## Not run: get_planning_areas(token, return_spatial=TRUE)

# error: output is NULL, warning message shows status code
