Description

The following package options can be set via options and queried via getOption.

Options to handle the AQS API rate limits

The AQS API recommends not to make more than 10 requests per minute and pause 5 seconds between requests.

• raqs.req_per_min controls the maximum number of API requests per minute. Default is 10.

• raqs.delay_between_req controls a delay between API requests sent via a function when your bdate and edate inputs span multiple years. A value will be rounded to the nearest integer. Default is 5 seconds.

• raqs.delay_fun_exit controls a delay before a function execution ends. A value will be rounded to the nearest integer. Default is zero if R is being used interactively. Otherwise, it is 5 seconds. This option only applies to functions that send API requests.

Option to handle the type of data object to return

By default, the parsed data will be returned as a data.frame object, but can be adjusted for users' preferences.

• raqs.return_type controls the type of data object to return. Default is "data.frame" but it can also be set to "tibble" or "data.table".

Examples
