How to install?

devtools::install_github("CaRdiffR/covidR-api")
library("covidR")

How to use?

A couple of examples:

> get_data_by_country("Italy")


   province country reportDate cases dead recovered
1             Italy 2020-02-24   229    7         1
2             Italy 2020-02-23   155    3         2
3             Italy 2020-02-21    20    1         0
...
> get_data_by_country("Poland", from = "2020-03-10")


  province country reportDate cases dead recovered
1           Poland 2020-03-11    31    0         0
2           Poland 2020-03-12    49    1         0
3           Poland 2020-03-10    22    0         0
4           Poland 2020-03-13    68    2         0
...

There's also more general function that accepts more flexible syntax:

> covid_api_request("?country=Spain")

Important

The data comes straight from database, so it's not cleaned. Eg. dates are not in a date format. To see how to get started with processing the data visit examples/ folder.

Examples

This is an example plot with ARIMA fit to logarithm of number of cases for 6 different countries.
