In pins: Pin, Discover and Share Resources

Description

Find a pin in any board registered using board_register().

Usage

pin_find(text = NULL, board = NULL, name = NULL, extended = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

text	The text to find in the pin description or name.
board	The board name used to find the pin.
name	The exact name of the pin to match when searching.
extended	Should additional board-specific columns be shown?
...	Additional parameters.

Details

pin_find() allows you to discover new resources or retrieve pins you've previously created with pin().

The pins package comes with a CRAN packages board which allows searching all CRAN packages; however, you can add additional boards to search from like Kaggle, Github and RStudio Connect.

For 'local' and 'packages' boards, the 'text' parameter searches the title and description of a pin using a regular expression. Other boards search in different ways, most of them are just partial matches, please refer to their documentation to understand how other boards search for pins.

Once you find a pin, you can retrieve with pin_get("pin-name").

Examples

library(pins)

# retrieve pins
pin_find()

# search pins related to 'cars'
pin_find("cars")

# search pins related to 'seattle' in the 'packages' board
pin_find("seattle", board = "packages")

# search pins related to 'london' in the 'packages' board
pin_find("london", board = "packages")


# retrieve 'hpiR/seattle_sales' pin
pin_get("hpiR/seattle_sales")

# retrieve 'bsamGP/London.Mortality' pin
pin_get("bsamGP/London.Mortality")
