povcalnet_wb() reports data apparently unavailable in web interface. #29

Closed ryancbriggs closed 4 years ago

ryancbriggs commented 4 years ago

The following lines of code will report a row with data for region SAS in 2015 but NAs for 2018.

library(povcalnetR)
regions <- povcalnet_wb()
regions <- regions[regions$regioncode == "SAS",]
regions[regions$year == 2015,]
regions[regions$year == 2018,]

The PovcalNet web interface, however, suppresses the results for both years as coverage in 2015 and 2018 in SAS is too low.

This inconsistency seems weird.

Thanks for your patience, and for reporting this @ryancbriggs

This is a known issue, and will be addressed in an upcoming release of PovcalNet.

Closing this issue as the problem comes from the underlying PovcalNet API, not from the povcalnetR package.
