Acknowledgements

Source code generation was made possible by:

• ts-morph for navigating the TypeScript AST of the official JavaScript client source and extracting the HTTP request methods into JSON.
• jsonlite for parsing objects from JSON to R.
• rlang (and the metaprogramming capabilities of R) for programmatically generating function definitions and parameter and return type documentation.

These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
