enigma_stats(dataset = NULL, select, conjunction = NULL, operation = NULL,
  by = NULL, of = NULL, limit = 500, search = NULL, where = NULL,
  sort = NULL, page = NULL, key = NULL, ...)

Arguments

dataset

Dataset name. Required.

select

(character) Column to get statistics on. Required.

conjunction

one of "and" or "or". Only applicable when more than one search or where parameter is provided. Default: "and"

operation

(character) Operation to run on a given column. For a numerical column, valid operations are sum, avg, stddev, variance, max, min and frequency. For a date column, valid operations are max, min and frequency. For all other columns, the only valid operation is frequency. Defaults to all available operations based on the column's type.

by

(character) Compound operation to run on a given pair of columns. Valid compound operations are sum and avg. When running a compound operation query, the of parameter is required (see below).

of

(character) Numerical column to compare against when running a compound operation. Required when using the by parameter. Must be a numerical column.

limit

(numeric) Limit the number of frequency, compound sum, or compound average results returned. Max: 500; Default: 500.

search

(character) Filter results by only returning rows that match a search query. By default this searches the entire table for matching text. To search particular fields only, use the query format "@fieldname query". To match multiple queries, the | (or) operator can be used eg. "query1|query2".

where

(character) Filter results with a SQL-style "where" clause. Only applies to numerical columns - use the search parameter for strings. Valid operators are >, < and =. Only one where clause per request is currently supported.

sort

(character) Sort frequency, compound sum, or compound average results in a given direction. + denotes ascending order, - denotes descending

page

(numeric) Paginate frequency, compound sum, or compound average results and return the nth page of results. Pages are calculated based on the current limit, which defaults to 500.

key

(character) Required. An Enigma API key. Supply in the function call, or store in your .Renviron file like ENIGMA_KEY=your key), or in your .Rprofile file as options(enigmaKey = "<your key>"), Obtain an API key by creating an account with Enigma at http://enigma.io, then obtain an API key from your account page.
