Search the openwashdata catalog — owd

Runs a case-insensitive regular expression over package, dataset and variable metadata, so owd_search("groundwater") answers "which package has data about groundwater". The search runs against a prebuilt flat index, so it is a single vectorized match regardless of catalog size.

Usage

owd_search(
  query,
  fields = c("title", "description", "variable_name", "dataset_name")
)

Arguments

query: A single regular expression (case-insensitive). Plain words work as-is.
fields: Character vector of fields to search. Any of "title", "description", "variable_name", "dataset_name", "pkg_name". The default covers titles, descriptions, variable names and dataset names.

Value

A tibble of hits with columns pkg_name, match_type ("package", "dataset" or "variable"), dataset_name, field and text (the matched text). Zero rows when nothing matches.
