peralta is an R package to detect if new datasets have been published to a web page. Define a list of suspects (URL's) you would like to track and then peralta informs you if there have been any updates. Don't let the data get away!
You can install the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("humaniverse/peralta")
Rather than create a new calss of objects (e.g., using R6/R7), peralta was
designed to take advantage of the existing R data.frame
class. This allows the
user to interact with data created by this package using tools already in their
arsenal.
