md_update_providers: Update the locally stored OAI-PMH data providers table.

In ropensci/rmetadata: Work with many Scholarly Metadata APIs in R.

Update the locally stored OAI-PMH data providers table.

Description

Data comes from http://www.openarchives.org/Register/BrowseSites. Data includes oai-identifier (if they have one) and baes URL. The website has the name of the data provider too, but not provided in the data pulled down here, but you can grab the name using example below.

Usage

md_update_providers(path = ".")

Arguments

path	Path to put data in.

Details

This table is scraped from http://www.openarchives.org/Register/BrowseSites. I would get it from http://www.openarchives.org/Register/ListFriends, but it does not include repository names.

This function updates the table for you. Does take a while though, so go get a coffee.
