Write Wikipedia page links to cache

Description

Mostly used internally by tidywikidatar, use with caution to keep caching consistent.

Usage

tw_write_wikipedia_category_members_to_cache(
  df,
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  type = "page",
  cache = NULL,
  overwrite_cache = FALSE,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE
)

Arguments

df	A data frame typically generated with tw_get_wikipedia_category_members().
language	Defaults to language set with tw_set_language(); if not set, "en". Use "all_available" to keep all languages. For available language values, see https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Wikimedia_language_codes/lists/all
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 https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Categorymembers
cache	Defaults to NULL. If given, it should be given either TRUE or FALSE. Typically set with tw_enable_cache() or tw_disable_cache().
overwrite_cache	Logical, defaults to FALSE. If TRUE, it overwrites the table in the local sqlite database. Useful if the original Wikidata object has been updated.
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.

Value

Silently returns the same data frame provided as input. Mostly used internally for its side effects.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
  df <- tw_get_wikipedia_category_members(
    category = "American women anthropologists",
    language = "en",
    cache = FALSE
  )

  tw_write_wikipedia_category_members_to_cache(
    df = df,
    language = "en"
  )
}
