FRED data #5

Closed mk0417 closed 3 years ago

mk0417 commented 4 years ago

Thanks for your project and very appreciate your work to make it open source.

Can I ask which package are you using to extract FRED data? Is this one as below? https://github.com/sboysel/fredr

If so, there is an open issue for this package: https://github.com/sboysel/fredr/issues/75

install.packages("fredr") is currently not working and should install this package from github: devtools::install_github("sboysel/fredr")

Just add the package version number in a comment and you're good to go.
