Query SB for items within a date range

Description

Queries ScienceBase for items with timestamps within a certain date/time range.

Usage

query_sb_date(
  start = as.POSIXct("1970-01-01"),
  end = Sys.time(),
  date_type = "lastUpdated",
  ...,
  limit = 20,
  session = current_session()
)

Arguments

start	Start date as POSIXct object. Defaults to 1970-01-01
end	End date as POSIXct object. Defaults to today.
date_type	Which object timestamp to query against. Options are (case sensitive): 'Acquisition', 'Award', 'Collected', 'dateCreated', 'Received', 'Reported', 'Transmitted', 'Due', 'End', 'Info', 'lastUpdated', 'Publication', 'Release', 'Repository Created', 'Repository Updated', 'Start'.
...	Additional parameters are passed on to GET
limit	Maximum number of returned items. Will do paging to retrieve results when limit is over 1000. Use with caution, queries 10k results are slow.
session	Session object from authenticate_sb
