Easy access from R to the QPX Express Airfare API
You can install the package using the devtools package as follows:
devtools::install_github("RossiLorenzo/QPXapi")
There is only one exported function in the package called QPX
. Using this function you'll connect to the API and download the JSON data obtained. You can then choose to get the results as they are or reshaped in a R data.frame (only a subset of fields). For example:
res <- QPX(apikey = "yourapikey", origin = "PSA", destination = "LON", date = Sys.Date() + 1)
this call will return the flights from Pisa to London for tomorrow in a R data.frame
In order to use this package you need to obtain an API key. You can find a comprehensive guide on how to do this HERE. The main steps are:
