Arguments

url	endpoint URI address in the format ⁠http://host:port/<optional_path>⁠.
verbose	logical; display connection information.
...	further arguments are passed on to httr::RETRY(). Pass httr::verbose() as parameter config to get detailed connection info.

Examples

# find a free port
port <- httpuv::randomPort()
port

# create a background DSD process sending data to the port
rp1 <- publish_DSD_via_WebService("DSD_Gaussians(k = 3, d = 3)", port = port)

## use json for the transport layer instead of csv
# rp1 <- publish_DSD_via_WebService("DSD_Gaussians(k = 3, d = 3)", 
#              port = port, serialize = "json")
rp1

# create a DSD that connects to the web service
dsd <- DSD_ReadWebService(paste0("http://localhost", ":", port))
dsd

get_points(dsd, n = 10)

plot(dsd)

# end the DSD process. Note: that closing the connection above
# may already kill the process.
rp1$kill()
