Availability information for election programmes

Description

Availability information for election programmes

Usage

mp_availability(ids, apikey = NULL, cache = TRUE)

Arguments

ids

Information on which documents to get. This can either be a list of partys (as ids) and dates of elections as given to mp_metadata or a ManifestoMetadata object (data.frame) as returned by mp_metadata. Alternatively, ids can be a logical expression specifying a subset of the Manifesto Project's main dataset. It will be evaluated within the data.frame returned by mp_maindataset such that all its variables and functions thereof can be used in the expression.

apikey

API key to use. Defaults to NULL, resulting in using the API key set via mp_setapikey.

cache

Boolean flag indicating whether to use locally cached data if available.

Value

an object of class ManifestoAvailability containing availability information. Can be treated as a data.frame and contains detailed availability information per document
