Get URL to a Wikipedia article corresponding to a Wikidata Q identifier in given language

Usage

tw_get_wikipedia(
  id,
  full_link = TRUE,
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  id_df = NULL,
  cache = NULL,
  overwrite_cache = FALSE,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE,
  wait = 0
)

Arguments

id: A character vector of length 1, must start with Q, e.g. "Q254" for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
full_link: Logical, defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, returns only the part of the url that corresponds to the title.
language: Defaults to language set with tw_set_language(); if not set, "en". Use "all_available" to keep all languages. For available language values, see the dedicated Wikimedia page.
id_df: Default to NULL. If given, it should be a dataframe typically generated with tw_get(), and is used instead of calling Wikidata or using SQLite cache. Ignored when id is of length more than one.
cache: Defaults to NULL. If given, it should be given either TRUE or FALSE. Typically set with tw_enable_cache() or tw_disable_cache().
overwrite_cache: Logical, defaults to FALSE. If TRUE, it overwrites the table in the local sqlite database. Useful if the original Wikidata object has been updated.
cache_connection: Defaults to NULL. If NULL, and caching is enabled, tidywikidatar will use a local sqlite database. A custom connection to other databases can be given (see vignette caching for details).
disconnect_db: Defaults to TRUE. If FALSE, leaves the connection to cache open.
wait: In seconds, defaults to 0. Time to wait between queries to Wikidata. If data are cached locally, wait time is not applied. If you are running many queries systematically you may want to add some waiting time between queries.

Value

A character vector of the same length as the vector of id given, with the Wikipedia link in the requested language.

Examples
