A Modern and Flexible Web Client for R // The curl() and
|
|
curl_download() functions provide highly configurable drop-in
|
|
replacements for base url() and download.file() with better
|
|
performance, support for encryption (https, ftps), gzip
|
|
compression, authentication, and other 'libcurl' goodies. The
|
|
core of the package implements a framework for performing fully
|
|
customized requests where data can be processed either in
|
|
memory, on disk, or streaming via the callback or connection
|
|
interfaces. Some knowledge of 'libcurl' is recommended; for a
|
|
more-user-friendly web client see the 'httr' package which
|
|
builds on this package with http specific tools and logic.
