Write Wikipedia page links to cache

Description

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

Usage

tw_write_wikipedia_page_links_to_cache(
  df,
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  cache = NULL,
  overwrite_cache = FALSE,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE
)

Arguments

df	A data frame typically generated with tw_get_wikipedia_page_links().
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.
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_page_links(
    title = "Margaret Mead",
    language = "en",
    cache = FALSE
  )

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