In Freguglia/rTwitchAPI: A Twitch.tv API wrapper for R
rTwitchAPI
rTwitchAPI allows you to make calls to the
API of the popular
streaming website twitch.tv with simple R functions,
allowing users to interact with the API even without great understaing
of REST APIs and http. Since R is primarily used for statistical
analysis, currently, the package only provides access to endpoints that
return data, for example, GET
https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams.
Users who might need other functionalities are very likely to also need
integration with tools from other programming languages and/or have
enough background to directly implement the call with
httr.
In summary, rTwitchAPI removes the burden of writing the calls to
specific endpoints and proccess results, making code cleaner, simpler
and more accessible. It is just an interface to access the API and is in
no way related to Twitch or the Twitch API. As stated in the official
documentation, by using it, you agree to
Twitch Developer Services
Agreement.
