a feature request - make it possible to convert a handlr object to a data frame #15
Comments
thanks for this @GeraldCNelson just to make sure we're on the same page, you are referring only to the |
Scott, I'm not sure I understand the details of the package well enough to give you a definitive answer. Here's my situation. I'm one of the lead authors on an IPCC chapter for AR6. We are supposed to assess the literature on climate change and topic x, where x is food security in my case. I have published a fair amount in my particular area of expertise. But I can't claim to know all the literature. So the process we're going through is to use various reference data bases - SCOPUS and Web of Science in particular, and then do so classification, both automatically (e.g., citation count > 3 and language = English,French). SCOPUS has a cvs output that lets us do the filtering but I can't figure out if WoS does. However both do .ris and .bib files. So I can read in these. Here's an example consumption_14.ris is a 2.6 MB .ris file. |
Thanks for the clarifications @GeraldCNelson It helps to know what the use case is. I'll have a look and get back to you soon |
@GeraldCNelson after reinstalling library(handlr)
z <- system.file('extdata/crossref.ris', package = "handlr")
x <- HandlrClient$new(x = z)
x$as_df() # empty data.frame
x$read()
x$as_df() # data.frame with citation data
# one citation
z <- system.file('extdata/crossref.ris', package = "handlr")
res <- ris_reader(z)
handl_to_df(res)
# many citations
z <- system.file('extdata/bib-many.bib', package = "handlr")
res2 <- bibtex_reader(x = z)
handl_to_df(res2) |
fixed #19 |
I'd like to request a function to convert a handl object into a data frame. There are times when I'd would like to be able to scan through a large set of references. Or pull out a column like the DOIs. Thanks for considering this!
