fetch_zones_three_digit: Get 3 digit zones

In aedobbyn/usps: United States Postal Service API Interface

Description

For a given 3-digit origin zip code, grab all destination zips and their corresponding zones. If a destination is supplied, the result is filtered to that origin-destination pair.

Usage

fetch_zones_three_digit(origin_zip = NULL, destination_zip = NULL,
  exact_destination = FALSE, as_range = FALSE, show_details = FALSE,
  n_tries = 3, verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

origin_zip	(character) A single origin zip. If > 3 characters are supplied, the first 3 are used. If fewer, leading 0s are prepended. (E.g., "7" becomes "007".)
destination_zip	(character) Optional destination zip. Can be 3 or 5 characters. If not included, returns all possible destinations for the origin provided.
exact_destination	(boolean) If destination_zip is supplied and is 5 digits, should the result be filtered to the full destination zip, or its first 3 digits?
as_range	(boolean) Should zones be shown with one row per zone (the default) or as one row per range of zips they apply to?
show_details	(boolean) Should columns with more details be retained? Specifically: specific_to_priority_mail, same_ndc, and has_five_digit_exceptions. Get more info with zone_detail_definitions.
n_tries	(numeric) How many times to try getting data if we're unsuccessful the first time.
verbose	(boolean) Message what's going on?

Details

Displays the result of a query what's shown on the "Get Zone Chart" tab of the USPS Zone Calc website. If you just want to supply two 5-digit zips and get a single zone back, use fetch_zones_five_digit.

Value

A tibble with origin zip and destination zips (in ranges or unspooled depending on as_range) and the USPS zones the origin-destination pair corresponds to. If show_details is TRUE, other columns are shown.
