Search in English referendum titles

Source: R/rdb.gen.R
search_rfrnds.Rd

Allows to use the RDB API's primitive search functionality. Note that

  • the search is not case-sensitive and no fuzzy search is performed (i.e. only exact matches are returned).

  • only up to the first 5 matching results will be returned.

Usage

search_rfrnds(
  term,
  use_testing_server = pal::pkg_config_val(key = "use_testing_server", pkg = this_pkg)
)

Arguments

term

Search term. A character scalar.

use_testing_server

Whether or not to use the testing servers instead of the production servers for RDB Services API calls etc.

Value

A character vector of English referendum titles matching the search term.

Details

Note that this function is probably not of much use since it doesn't return any additional information about the matched referendums but only the English titles.
