Description

R Client for Neuroscience Information Framework APIs

API key

You now need an API key to use the NIF API. Steps:

• Go to https://www.neuinfo.org/

• If you don't have an account yet, register for an account.

• Log in

• Go to https://www.neuinfo.org/account/developer - you'll need to enter your password again

• Create an API key

• Store your API key ideally as an environment variable in .Renviron or similar. Or, you can save as an R option. (see ?Startup for help on env vars and R options). You can also pass in your API key to each function but that's not ideal.

Note

The following services are not available in this client:

• annotate - It appears that this is mostly for browser based annotation, so not a good fit for an R package
