SCapi_general: Return results from users, tracks, groups, comments.

In JasperHG90/RSoundCloud: API wrapper for Soundcloud

Description

A client ID is necessary to query results from the SoundCloud API. See loginDetails. The SCapi_general function differs from the SCapi_specific function in that it only queries "generic" results. To query e.g. the tracks of a specific user, or to get the results for a specific user, see SCapi_specific.

Usage

SCapi_general(client_id, type = c("users", "tracks", "groups", "comments"),
  limit = 50, verbose = FALSE, filter = NULL, offset = NULL)

Arguments

client_id	The soundcloud client id of your application. See loginDetails() for more information
type	What would you like to query? Must be one of "users", "tracks", "groups", "comments"
limit	how many results should be returned? Soundcloud allows you to query 200 results per query. If you want more results, this is possible by paginating (done automatically).
verbose	prints the url to query for every request.
filter	Use if you want to add filters to the query. See: http://bit.ly/1OwCaUC for more information. Filters must be added as a list, e.g. filter = list("q" = "the-bugle").
offset	determines at which result we start searching. For example, if we do a generic query for "users", which returns all users for the limit we set (e.g. 1000), and we use offset = 1000, then we begin our search at the 1001st user, thus returning the information of users between 1000 and 2000.
