rdatagouv: Tools to Download and Explore Datasets from Data.gouv.fr

Provides a client for the public API of data.gouv.fr, the French government's open data platform. It helps you find a dataset that matches your interests, judge whether it is usable, download it, and re-fetch the exact same table later in a reproducible way. You can search the catalog and filter by producer or theme (dg_find_datasets(), dg_find_organization(), dg_find_topics()), pull a dataset's tabular resources into tidy tibbles (dg_pull_dataset()), inspect the documented variables of its data schema (dg_schema()), and compute summary metrics such as size, number of columns and missing-value rate (dg_summary(), dg_summarise()). Each returned table carries a stable identifier (dg_table_id(), dg_refetch()) so it can be re-fetched later. Requests are built on top of 'httr2'.
