Gets labels for all columns with names such as "id" and "property".

Usage

tw_label(
  df,
  value = TRUE,
  language = tidywikidatar::tw_get_language(),
  cache = NULL,
  overwrite_cache = FALSE,
  cache_connection = NULL,
  disconnect_db = TRUE,
  wait = 0
)

Arguments

df

A data frame, typically generated with other tidywikidatar functions such as tw_get_property()

value

Logical, defaults to TRUE. If TRUE, it tries to get labels for all supposed id in the column called value. May break if the columns include some value which starts with Q and some digits, but is not a wikidata id.

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 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Wikimedia_language_codes/lists/all

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 data frame, with the same shape as the input data frame, but with labels instead of identifiers.

Examples

# \donttest{
if (interactive()) {
  tw_get_qualifiers(id = "Q180099", p = "P26", language = "en") %>%
    head(2) %>%
    tw_label()
}
# }
