Load Raw Billions Indicator Data

Description

load_billion_data_legacy() is the legacy version of load_billion_data(). It provides access to the raw inputs to the Billions stored within the World Health Organization's xMart4 database. By default, it filters the loaded data to take the most recently uploaded data for each indicator, country, and year. The user can also specify to take the latest data before a certain time period, or to extract all data from the database.

Usage

load_billion_data_legacy(
  billion = c("hep", "hpop", "uhc", "all"),
  mart_table = c("full_data", "raw_data", "projected_data", "unproj_data", "proj_data"),
  date_filter = "latest",
  na_rm = TRUE,
  format = c("csv", "streaming", "none"),
  ...
)
