In giannou/r2databus: An R interface for the DBpedia Databus

An R interface for the DBpedia Databus

R package r2databus, version 0.3.0

Purpose and Functionality

Provides tools for uploading, downloading, and annotating data to the DBpedia Databus.

Installation

For installation of the most recent package version an additional repository has to be added in R:

options(repos = c(CRAN = "@CRAN@", pik = "https://rse.pik-potsdam.de/r/packages"))

The additional repository can be made available permanently by adding the line above to a file called .Rprofile stored in the home folder of your system (Sys.glob("~") in R returns the home directory).

After that the most recent version of the package can be installed using install.packages:

install.packages("r2databus")

Package updates can be installed using update.packages (make sure that the additional repository has been added before running that command):

update.packages()

Tutorial

The package comes with vignettes describing the basic functionality of the package and how to use it. You can load them with the following command (the package needs to be installed):

vignette("databusDownload") # Download Data from the Energy Databus for use with MADRaT
vignette("databusUpload")   # Upload Data to the Energy Databus with R
