Registry -- allow users to query beta mines #46

Open julie-sullivan opened 6 years ago

julie-sullivan commented 6 years ago

Currently you can only query production InterMines. There is a use case for being able to query dev mines, e.g FlyMine beta.

I've added the hacktoberfest label to this issue - if you're interested in contributing, the code to fetch a list of InterMines from the InterMine registry is here: https://github.com/intermine/InterMineR/blob/master/R/InterMineR.R

Context: when using methods that access the registry, it would be nice to have an optional argument that allows users to select all InterMines, just the dev intermines, or just the production InterMines.

Registry docs are here - http://registry.intermine.org/api-docs/ - but probably all you'll need is to switch the param at the end of the URL
