Overview

About

Maintained by Milan Bouchet-ValatFirst published 2014-02-108 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides a 'tm' Source to create corpora from articles exported from the 'LexisNexis' content provider as HTML files. It is able to read both text content and meta-data information (including source, date, title, author and pages). Note that the file format is highly unstable: there is no warranty that this package will work for your corpus, and you may have to adjust the code to adapt it to your particular format.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("tm.plugin.lexisnexis", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-tm.plugin.lexisnexis
