fetch_lords_divisions_members: Fetch key details Lords voting record for divisions

In houseofcommonslibrary/clvotes: An R package for downloading data from the Commons and Lords Votes API

Description

fetch_lords_divisions_members fetches data from the Lords Votes API showing key details about the voting record for a Lord for each division, with one row per division. Only whether a Lord voted "Content" in a division is returned.

Usage

fetch_lords_divisions_members(
  member_mnis_id = NULL,
  from_date = NULL,
  to_date = NULL,
  on_date = NULL
)

Arguments

member_mnis_id	An integer or vector of integers representing a member mnis ID.
from_date	A string or Date representing a date. If a string is used it should specify the date in ISO 8601 date format e.g. '2000-12-31'. The default value is NULL, which means no records are excluded on the basis of the from_date.
to_date	A string or Date representing a date. If a string is used it should specify the date in ISO 8601 date format e.g. '2000-12-31'. The default value is NULL, which means no records are excluded on the basis of the to_date.
on_date	A string or Date representing a date. If a string is used it should specify the date in ISO 8601 date format e.g. '2000-12-31'. The default value is NULL, which means no records are excluded on the basis of the on_date.

Details

The from_date and to_date arguments can be used to filter divisions based on the dates they occurred. The on_date argument is a convenience that sets the from_date and to_date to the same given date. The on_date has priority: if the on_date is set, the from_date and to_date are ignored.

Value

A tibble of key details for a Lords voting record, with one row per division.
