get_rocket_channels_history Gets a dataframe with the messages exchanged in a specific channel of a Rocket.chat server.

1 2	get_rocket_channels_history(url, user_id, auth_token, channel, n_messages = 0)

`url`	The url of the rocket.chat server (has to be complete, with http or https).
`user_id`	The users ID retrieved from 'get_rocket_credentials'.
`auth_token`	The users authentication Token retrieved from 'get_rocket_credentials'.
`channel`	The name of the channel to get the history from
`n_messages`	The number of messages to be returned (default is 0, which brings the complete history)

This function returns a dataframe containing 'n' messages exchanged in a public/open channel in a Rocket.chat server.

The return of this function contains the content of the message, who sent it (username and name), the ID of the sender, and a time stamp.

The function may be similar (some might say is equal) to 'get_rocket_groups_history', but Rocket.chat has a few differences in the API regarding public/open channels and private groups, this is the reason there are two functions.

The return of this function is a dataframe.
