Broken bfs_search #1

Closed d-qn closed 5 years ago

d-qn commented 6 years ago

Hello,

great idea with this package! However I just gave it a try and it seems BFS changed the location of their list of cubes. I get an error when using it:

bfs_search("student", langage = "en")

It seems that the URL it is trying to fetch the list of cubes no longer exists. I have briefly tried to find a new URL for it, but instead I only found this (lame) webpage instead of a proper spreadsheet.

Hello Duc-Quang,

Thank you for your message and your interest in my package. And sorry for my late answer.

I finally took the time to rebuild the package based on the webpage link you shared in your comment. Indeed the list of cubes no longer exists.

The bfs_search() function should now work.

Please let me know if it works for you.

I hope you will find this package useful.

Best, Félix
