Generate datasets for House of Representative and Senate members service dates.

Source: R/get_repsandsenate.R

`get_reps_senate()` generates a dataset for members' service time for the Australian House of Representatives, the Australian Senate, or a joined dataset containing values for both the HoR and Senate. Additionally, will produce a set of arguments that can be used as request codes for the individual datasets.

get_reps_senate(x)

Arguments

x

A character string used to request a printout of the request code arguments, *see Request Codes* below, or one of three prepared datasets.

Value

A console printout of a tibble containing arguments to be used with the function, or the requested dataset using x assigned to a user created variable.

Details

There are four request codes: `reps_senate`, `reps`, `senate` and `codes`.

The specifics of these are:

- `reps_senate` - generates a dataset of HoRs and Senate members; - `reps` - generates a dataset of HoRs members; - `senate` - generates a dataset of Senate members; and - `codes` - returns a tibble of codes used to request data.

An incorrect request code (an argument not associated with a dataset or non-character string argument) will stop function processes and return an error message.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
# Generate a printout of the arguments.
get_reps_senate("codes")

# Generate combined HoR and Senate dataset.
reps_senate <- get_reps_senate("reps_senate")

# Preview dataset.
head(reps_senate)

# Generate only HoR dataset.
reps <- get_reps_senate("reps")

# Preview dataset.
head(reps)
}
