Reset Wikipedia category members cache

Description

Removes from cache the table where data typically gathered with tw_get_wikipedia_category_members() are stored.

Usage

tw_reset_wikipedia_category_members_cache(
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  type = "page",
  cache = NULL,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE,
  ask = TRUE
)

Arguments

language	Two-letter language code used to define the Wikipedia version to use. Defaults to language set with tw_set_language(); if not set, "en". If url given, this can be left empty.
type	Defaults to "page", defines which kind of members of a category are returned. Valid values include "page", "file", and "subcat" (for sub-category). Corresponds to cmtype. For details, see the relevant page of the official documentation.
cache	Defaults to NULL. If given, it should be given either TRUE or FALSE. Typically set with tw_enable_cache() or tw_disable_cache().
cache_connection	Defaults to NULL. If NULL, and caching is enabled, tidywikidatar will use a local sqlite database. A custom connection to other databases can be given (see vignette caching for details).
disconnect_db	Defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, leaves the connection to cache open.
ask	Logical, defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, and cache folder does not exist, it just creates it without asking (useful for non-interactive sessions).

Value

Nothing, used for its side effects.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
  tw_reset_wikipedia_category_members_cache()
}
