Working on a package to make querying data from the BLS public API in R a bit easier.

Provides two main functions:

  • get_bls_info() returns information regarding a series id (e.g survey name, series title, etc)
  • get_bls_data() retrieves a data.frame containing the data for the requested series ids.

Both functions have a registration_key argument. You must request a key from the BLS website

TODO:

  • Add input validation
  • Add response validation
  • Add some tests

During all of the above steps: improve documentation.
