Description

Ping an API used in taxize to see if it's working.

Usage

col_ping(what = "status", ...)

eol_ping(what = "status", ...)

itis_ping(what = "status", ...)

ncbi_ping(what = "status", key = NULL, ...)

tropicos_ping(what = "status", ...)

nbn_ping(what = "status", ...)

gbif_ping(what = "status", ...)

bold_ping(what = "status", ...)

ipni_ping(what = "status", ...)

vascan_ping(what = "status", ...)

fg_ping(what = "status", ...)

Arguments

what	(character) One of status (default), content, or an HTTP status code. If status, we just check that the HTTP status code is 200, or similar signifying the service is up. If content, we do a simple, quick check to determine if returned content matches what's expected. If an HTTP status code, it must match an appropriate code. See status_codes().
...	Curl options passed on to crul::verb-GET
key	(character) NCBI Entrez API key. optional. See get_uid()

Details

For ITIS, see ritis::description, which provides number of scientific and common names in a character string.

Value

A logical, TRUE or FALSE

HTTP version for NCBI requests

We hard code http_version = 2L to use HTTP/1.1 in HTTP requests to the Entrez API. See curl::curl_symbols('CURL_HTTP_VERSION')
