Overview

About

Maintained by André LeiteCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

A tidy interface to the open data API of the Legislative Assembly of the State of Pernambuco, Brazil ('ALEPE', https://dadosabertos.alepe.pe.gov.br). Retrieve data on representatives, staff, positions, departments, remuneration, contracts, procurement processes, and legislative propositions as tibbles with clean names and parsed column types. Requests are cached locally and retried with exponential backoff; network failures are handled gracefully.

Changes in 0.1.1

alepe_staff() gains status = "lent" (API term "efetivo-cedido"): the Assembly's own permanent staff lent to other bodies. The API publishes them with vinculo "Efetivo", so this server-side filter is the only way to single them out. alepe_positions() does not accept it, because /cargos ignores the value and returns every status.
An invalid status in alepe_staff() / alepe_positions() (and their aliases) is now an error, as documented. It used to be evaluated inside the fetch layer's error handler and surfaced as a warning that the API could not be reached, followed by an empty tibble.
Author metadata: the maintainer's name is spelled André Leite; Marcos Wasiliew's e-mail address is updated; ORCIDs added for Marcos Wasiliew and Júlia Nascimento Barreto.

Install

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

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

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("StrategicProjects/alepe")

Development version from StrategicProjects/alepe. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

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-alepe

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-alepe

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-alepe

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
