csodata: A package for downloading CSO data.
Description
The csodata package allows for easily downloading CSO (Central Statistics Office, the National Statistics Institute of Ireland) PxStat data into R.
Details
A specific table can be downloaded using cso_get_data,
while a list of all tables currently available and their titles can
be found using cso_get_toc and cso_search_toc
is used to search their descriptions.
Metadata for a specified table can be retrieved with
cso_get_meta, or printed on the console using
cso_disp_meta.
cso_get_vars, cso_get_interval, and
cso_get_content all return a subset of the full metadata of
a table. cso_get_var_values returns all the variables in the
tables.
These functions provide the option to cache the returned data using the
R.cache package. The cache can be deleted using
cso_clear_cache.
ESRI shapefiles covering the country in varying degrees of granularity can
be downloaded from
cso.ie and
imported as an sf data frame using the cso_get_geo function.
Metadata about the map data can be retrieved with
cso_get_geo_meta, and displayed on the console with
cso_disp_geo_meta.
