Description

This function adds or updates a single Publication record using metadata associated with a PubMed identifier.

Usage

importPublication(
  PMID,
  .permissions = getOption("GeneHive.permissions"),
  con = hiveConnection(),
  verbose = getOption("GeneHive.verbose")
)

Arguments

`PMID`	A numeric or character vector of length one specifying a PubMed identifier
`.permissions`	A `hivePermissions` object specifying the permissions to be used when creating or updating the record
`con`	A `hiveConnection` object; if not provided, a new connection will be established

Details

The fields of the Publication record are populated from the PubMed XML record. If a DOI is present, it is added; otherwise, that field is left blank.
