Error in start_top:end_top : NA/NaN argument #449

Closed amitxy closed 1 year ago

amitxy commented 1 year ago

The following code:

plot(
  gtrends(
    keyword = "Coca-Cola",
    geo = "US",
    time = "2005-02-04 2005-02-05",
    onlyInterest = FALSE
  )
)

produces this error Error in start_top:end_top : NA/NaN argument

also happens with this code (just to show that it's not about the 1 day difference)

gtrends(
    keyword = "Coca-Cola",
    geo = "US",
    time = "2005-02-04 2005-02-08"
  )

Try with the dev version.

JBleher commented 1 year ago

This is because you are looking at only one day (February 4, 2005 to February 5, 2005). If you look at google you will not get related topics for one day.

JBleher commented 1 year ago

In fact, you will get the top related topics, but not the rising ones. Since the rising topics are empty. gtrends() will throw an error.

I tried, didn't help

This is because you are looking at only one day (February 4, 2005 to February 5, 2005). If you look at google you will not get related topics for one day.

Ok, but still on the other example we look at 5 days (Feb 4 to Feb Feb 8) and the issue still occurs this is the output from google for those dates: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2005-02-04%202005-02-08&geo=US&q=Coca%20Cola&hl=en

JBleher commented 1 year ago

That is not the request you included. (Probably my bad) You were looking for "coca-cola" not "coca cola". For coca-cola you do not have a rising related topic tab in the result from google. Have a look: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2005-02-04%202005-02-08&geo=US&q=Coca-Cola&hl=en

amitxy commented 1 year ago

hmmm, ok thanks for the enlightenment :) btw, is there any chance to "fix" it? I mean either return the data (with zeros of course) or at least add something that is a little bit clearer in the error prompt

Ok now I found something else (basically the same issue) :P , the following code

d2 <- gtrends("Coca Cola", geo = "US", time="2005-02-05 2005-02-07")
plot(d2)

yields the the same error but as you can see the results from google are perfectly fine https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2005-02-05%202005-02-07&geo=US&q=Coca%20Cola&hl=en

Like I said, works fine with the dev version

First, it's still not correct, there are differences between the values you receive and and what google shows if you'll look again at the google trands you will notice these differences : your plot google's plot
x(Feb 05) < 87.5 x(Feb 05) = 91
x(Feb 06) = 0 x(Feb 06) = 25

Second, I've installed the dev version and still get the same, you can see here: image Also, I reinstalled R and R studio and updated all the packages just to see if it will work and it didn't (both on my PC and laptop)

eddelbuettel commented 1 year ago

Just a thought: Maybe your timezone matters / is different between web-browsing and API requests and leads to different cutoff times. You could try overriding that. This should wash out more if you compare 7 days or a month or longer.

I am also getting the same error for a longer time period (default of today+5-y):
