R Documentation

List all Entities of a kind.

Description

Usage

entity_list(
  pid = get_default_pid(),
  did = "",
  deleted = FALSE,
  url = get_default_url(),
  un = get_default_un(),
  pw = get_default_pw(),
  retries = get_retries(),
  odkc_version = get_default_odkc_version(),
  orders = get_default_orders(),
  tz = get_default_tz()
)

Arguments

`pid`	The numeric ID of the project, e.g.: 2. Default: `get_default_pid`. Set default `pid` through `ru_setup(pid="...")`. See `vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK")`.
`did`	(chr) The name of the Entity List, internally called Dataset. The function will error if this parameter is not given. Default: "".
`deleted`	(lgl) Whether to get only deleted entities (`TRUE`) or not (`FALSE`). Default: `FALSE`.
`url`	The ODK Central base URL without trailing slash. Default: `get_default_url`. Set default `url` through `ru_setup(url="...")`. See `vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK")`.
`un`	The ODK Central username (an email address). Default: `get_default_un`. Set default `un` through `ru_setup(un="...")`. See `vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK")`.
`pw`	The ODK Central password. Default: `get_default_pw`. Set default `pw` through `ru_setup(pw="...")`. See `vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK")`.
`retries`	The number of attempts to retrieve a web resource. This parameter is given to `RETRY(times = retries)`. Default: 3.
`odkc_version`	The ODK Central version as a semantic version string (year.minor.patch), e.g. "2023.5.1". The version is shown on ODK Central's version page `⁠/version.txt⁠`. Discard the "v". `ruODK` uses this parameter to adjust for breaking changes in ODK Central. Default: `get_default_odkc_version` or "2023.5.1" if unset. Set default `get_default_odkc_version` through `ru_setup(odkc_version="2023.5.1")`. See `vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK")`.
`orders`	(vector of character) Orders of datetime elements for lubridate. Default: `c("YmdHMS", "YmdHMSz", "Ymd HMS", "Ymd HMSz", "Ymd", "ymd")`.
`tz`	A timezone to convert dates and times to. Read `vignette("setup", package = "ruODK")` to learn how `ruODK`'s timezone can be set globally or per function.

Details

This function returns a list of the Entities of a kind (belonging to an Entity List or Dataset). Please note that this endpoint only returns metadata of the entities, not the data. If you want to get the data of all entities then please refer to the OData Dataset Service.

You can get only deleted entities with deleted=TRUE.

Value

A tibble with exactly one row for each Entity of the given project as per ODK Central API docs. Column names are renamed from ODK's camelCase to snake_case.

Examples

## Not run: 
# See vignette("setup") for setup and authentication options
# ruODK::ru_setup(svc = "....svc", un = "me@email.com", pw = "...")

el <- entitylist_list()

# Entity List name (dataset ID)
did <- el$name[1]

# All Entities of Entity List
en <- entity_list(did = el$name[1])

# The UUID of the first Entity
eid <- en$uuid[1]

# The current version of the first Entity
ev <- en$current_version_version[1]

## End(Not run)
