Trove_workshop

R SHiny interface to Trove API with csv data download option to work with tidy data. An extension of the original Trove_workshop repository on github here [r-lange/Trove_workshop].

App available online

This could be hosted by a potential community group, university or company. Contact me for support in this here @ anthony.davidson@canberra.edu.au.

The Shiny webapp

... would allow the interface with the Trove API and access a version of the data that is archived and managed by the identity

  • An API key needs to be supplied for this to work
    • Update needed to align this with version 2.
  • the user will only be able to access newspaper information for now.

Work To Do:

  • implement iteration of the search until all results are collated (i.e. there might be 200 records but the API only allows retrieval of 100 at a time)
  • implement input selection for years
  • inlcude proper error message when API key is not given
  • remove leading and trailing spaces in inputs

Original app

Coming here hopefully soon (anyone wana help?):

  • selection of brief or full records possible
  • The app displays the search results in a table
  • search results can be viewed by clicking on links in the troveUrl column
  • Download Data will open a dialog box to download the displayd table as a csv file

About

R Shiny interface to Trove API (v2) enabling csv data download in the future. Hope to get the trove database to interact with R in an easy way.
