A tidy, pipeable wrapper on WDI::WDIsearch() for discovering indicator codes.

Usage

wdi_search(pattern, field = c("name", "indicator"), cache = NULL)

Arguments

pattern

A regular expression to search indicator names/codes for.

field

Which field to search: "name" (default) or "indicator".

cache

Optional cached WDIcache() object; if NULL, WDI's bundled cache is used (no network).

Value

A tibble of matching indicator codes and names.

Examples

# \donttest{
wdi_search("CO2 emissions")
#> # A tibble: 42 × 2
