An R package to support analysts in connecting to and processing data from the DfE's explore education statistics API endpoints.
To get started using the package take a look at the getting started guide on our documentation site.
eesyapi is not currently available on CRAN. For the time being you can install the development version from GitHub.
If you are using renv in your project (recommended):
renv::install("dfe-analytical-services/eesyapi")
Otherwise:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("dfe-analytical-services/eesyapi")
For internal DfE users, if you get ERROR [curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 401]
,
and don't know why, try running Sys.unsetenv("GITHUB_PAT")
to temporarily clear your
GitHub PAT variable.
Then try to install again.
If this works, then you will need to look for where that "GITHUB_PAT" variable is being set from and remove it to permanently fix the issue, contact us for support if you need help with this or have any other issues installing.
Ideas for eesyapi should first be raised as a GitHub issue after which anyone is free to write the code and create a pull request for review.
