Hi sbalci,
At the moment, rentrez only works with the web api. It might be possible to us to develop a package that duplicates the edirect
archive in the future, but it would like be some in addition to rentrez.
I'm closing the issue, but feel free to reply
Thank you.
I already have a local copy. I just want to use R interface and if possible your package to access my local copy like:
entrez_search(db="MyLocalCopy", term="myQuery")
Best wishes
Sadly, rentrez
just won't be able to do that. It is written to take advantage of the webserver-based access to the databases, as I understand it, the locally stored database can't be accessed in the same way.
Thank you for this package.
Is it possible to use it with a local copy of PubMed?
By a local copy I mean as described here: https://dataguide.nlm.nih.gov/edirect/archive.html
Thank you and Best wishes
