Configure settings

Description

Configure session settings for opencage.

Usage

oc_config(
  key = Sys.getenv("OPENCAGE_KEY"),
  rate_sec = getOption("oc_rate_sec", default = 1L),
  no_record = getOption("oc_no_record", default = TRUE),
  show_key = getOption("oc_show_key", default = FALSE),
  ...
)

Arguments

key

Your OpenCage API key as a character vector of length one. Do not pass the key directly as a parameter, though. See details.

rate_sec

Numeric vector of length one. Sets the maximum number of requests sent to the OpenCage API per second. Defaults to the value set in the oc_rate_sec option, or, in case that does not exist, to 1L.

no_record

Logical vector of length one. When TRUE, OpenCage will not create log entries of the queries and will not cache the geocoding requests. Defaults to the value set in the oc_no_record option, or, in case that does not exist, to TRUE.

show_key

Logical vector of length one. This is only relevant when debugging oc_forward() or oc_reverse() calls with the return = "url_only" argument. When TRUE, the result will show your OpenCage API key in the URL as stored in the OPENCAGE_KEY environment variable. When not TRUE, the API key will be replaced with the string OPENCAGE_KEY. show_key defaults to the value set in the oc_show_key option, or, in case that does not exist, to FALSE.

...

Ignored.

Set your OpenCage API key

opencage will conveniently retrieve your API key if it is saved in the environment variable "OPENCAGE_KEY". oc_config() will help to set that environment variable. Do not pass the key directly as a parameter to the function, though, as you risk exposing it via your script or your history. There are three safer ways to set your API key instead:

Save your API key as an environment variable in .Renviron as described in What They Forgot to Teach You About R or Efficient R Programming. From there it will be fetched by all functions that call the OpenCage API. You do not even have to call oc_config() to set your key; you can start geocoding right away. If you have the usethis package installed, you can edit your .Renviron with usethis::edit_r_environ(). We strongly recommend storing your API key in the user-level .Renviron, as opposed to the project-level. This makes it less likely you will share sensitive information by mistake.
If you use a package like keyring to store your credentials, you can safely pass your key in a script with a function call like this oc_config(key = keyring::key_get("opencage")).
If you call oc_config() in an base::interactive() session and the OPENCAGE_KEY environment variable is not set, it will prompt you to enter the key in the console.

Set your OpenCage API rate limit

The rate limit allowed by the API depends on the OpenCage plan you purchased and ranges from 1 request/sec for the "Free Trial" plan to 15 requests/sec for the "Medium" or "Large" plans, see https://opencagedata.com/pricing for details and up-to-date information. You can set the rate limit persistently across sessions by setting an oc_rate_sec option in your .Rprofile. If you have the usethis package installed, you can edit your .Rprofile with usethis::edit_r_profile().

Prevent query logging and caching

By default, OpenCage will store your queries in its server logs and will cache the forward geocoding requests on their side. They do this in order to speed up response times and to be able to debug errors and improve their service. Logs are automatically deleted after six months according to OpenCage's page on data protection and GDPR.

If you set no_record to TRUE, the query contents are not logged nor cached. OpenCage still records that you made a request, but not the specific query you made. oc_config(no_record = TRUE) sets the oc_no_record option for the active R session, so it will be used for all subsequent OpenCage queries. You can set the oc_no_record option persistently across sessions in your .Rprofile.

For increased privacy opencage sets no_record to TRUE, by default. Please note, however, that opencage always caches the data it receives from the OpenCage API locally, but only for as long as your R session is alive.

For more information on OpenCage's policies on privacy and data protection see their FAQs, their GDPR page, and, for the no_record parameter, see the relevant blog post.

Forward geocoding

Description

Forward geocoding from a character vector of location names to latitude and longitude tuples.

Usage

oc_forward(
  placename,
  return = c("df_list", "json_list", "geojson_list", "url_only"),
  bounds = NULL,
  proximity = NULL,
  countrycode = NULL,
  language = NULL,
  limit = 10L,
  min_confidence = NULL,
  no_annotations = TRUE,
  roadinfo = FALSE,
  no_dedupe = FALSE,
  abbrv = FALSE,
  add_request = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

placename

A character vector with the location names or addresses to be geocoded.

If the locations are addresses, see OpenCage's instructions on how to format addresses for best forward geocoding results.

return

A character vector of length one indicating the return value of the function, either a list of tibbles (df_list, the default), a JSON list (json_list), a GeoJSON list (geojson_list), or the URL with which the API would be called (url_only).

bounds

A list of bounding boxes of length one or length(placename). Bounding boxes are named numeric vectors, each with four coordinates forming the south-west and north-east corners of the bounding box: list(c(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax)). bounds restricts the possible results to the supplied region. It can be specified with the oc_bbox() helper. For example: bounds = oc_bbox(-0.563160, 51.280430, 0.278970, 51.683979). Default is NULL.

proximity

A list of points of length one or length(placename). A point is a named numeric vector of a latitude, longitude coordinate pair in decimal format. proximity provides OpenCage with a hint to bias results in favour of those closer to the specified location. It can be specified with the oc_points() helper. For example: proximity = oc_points(51.9526, 7.6324). Default is NULL.

countrycode

A two letter code as defined by the ISO 3166-1 Alpha 2 standard that restricts the results to the given country or countries. E.g. "AR" for Argentina, "FR" for France, "NZ" for the New Zealand. Multiple countrycodes per placename must be wrapped in a list. Default is NULL.

language

An IETF BCP 47 language tag (such as "es" for Spanish or "pt-BR" for Brazilian Portuguese). OpenCage will attempt to return results in that language. Alternatively you can specify the "native" tag, in which case OpenCage will attempt to return the response in the "official" language(s). In case the language parameter is set to NULL (which is the default), the tag is not recognized, or OpenCage does not have a record in that language, the results will be returned in English.

limit

Numeric vector of integer values to determine the maximum number of results returned for each placename. Integer values between 1 and 100 are allowed. Default is 10.

min_confidence

Numeric vector of integer values between 0 and 10 indicating the precision of the returned result as defined by its geographical extent, (i.e. by the extent of the result's bounding box). See the API documentation for details. Only results with at least the requested confidence will be returned. Default is NULL.

no_annotations

Logical vector indicating whether additional information about the result location should be returned. TRUE by default, which means that the results will not contain annotations.

roadinfo

Logical vector indicating whether the geocoder should attempt to match the nearest road (rather than an address) and provide additional road and driving information. Default is FALSE.

no_dedupe

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE the results will not be deduplicated.

abbrv

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE addresses in the formatted field of the results are abbreviated (e.g. "Main St." instead of "Main Street").

add_request

Logical vector (default FALSE) indicating whether the request is returned again with the results. If the return value is a df_list, the query text is added as a column to the results. json_list results will contain all request parameters, including the API key used! This is currently ignored by OpenCage if return value is geojson_list.

...

Ignored.

Value

Depending on the return argument, oc_forward returns a list with either

the results as tibbles ("df_list", the default),
the results as JSON specified as a list ("json_list"),
the results as GeoJSON specified as a list ("geojson_list"), or
the URL of the OpenCage API call for debugging purposes ("url_only").

When the results are returned as (a list of) tibbles, the column names coming from the OpenCage API are prefixed with "oc_".

Examples



# Geocode a single location, an address in this case
oc_forward(placename = "Triererstr 15, 99432, Weimar, Deutschland")

# Geocode multiple locations
locations <- c("Nantes", "Hamburg", "Los Angeles")
oc_forward(placename = locations)

# Use bounding box to help return accurate results
# for each placename
bounds <- oc_bbox(xmin = c(-2, 9, -119),
                  ymin = c(47, 53, 34),
                  xmax = c(0, 10, -117),
                  ymax = c(48, 54, 35))
oc_forward(placename = locations, bounds = bounds)

# Another way to help specify the desired results
# is with country codes.
oc_forward(placename = locations,
           countrycode = c("ca", "us", "co"))

# With multiple countrycodes per placename
oc_forward(placename = locations,
           countrycode = list(c("fr", "ca") , c("de", "us"), c("us", "co"))
           )

# Return results in a preferred language if possible
oc_forward(placename = c("Brugge", "Mechelen", "Antwerp"),
           language = "fr")

# Limit the number of results per placename and return json_list
oc_forward(placename = locations,
           bounds = bounds,
           limit = 1,
           return = "json_list")

Deprecated functions in opencage

Description

These functions still work but will be removed (defunct) in the next version.

Forward geocoding

Description

Soft-deprecated lifecycle

Soft deprecated: use oc_forward or oc_forward_df for forward geocoding.

Usage

opencage_forward(
  placename,
  key = opencage_key(),
  bounds = NULL,
  countrycode = NULL,
  language = NULL,
  limit = 10L,
  min_confidence = NULL,
  no_annotations = FALSE,
  no_dedupe = FALSE,
  no_record = FALSE,
  abbrv = FALSE,
  add_request = TRUE
)

Arguments

placename

A character vector with the location names or addresses to be geocoded.

If the locations are addresses, see OpenCage's instructions on how to format addresses for best forward geocoding results.

key

Your OpenCage API key as a character vector of length one. By default, opencage_key() will attempt to retrieve the key from the environment variable OPENCAGE_KEY.

bounds

countrycode

language

limit

Numeric vector of integer values to determine the maximum number of results returned for each placename. Integer values between 1 and 100 are allowed. Default is 10.

min_confidence

no_annotations

Logical vector indicating whether additional information about the result location should be returned. TRUE by default, which means that the results will not contain annotations.

no_dedupe

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE the results will not be deduplicated.

no_record

Logical vector of length one (default FALSE), when TRUE no log entry of the query is created, and the geocoding request is not cached by OpenCage.

abbrv

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE addresses in the formatted field of the results are abbreviated (e.g. "Main St." instead of "Main Street").

add_request

Value

A list with

results as a tibble with one line per result,
the number of results as an integer,
the timestamp as a POSIXct object,
rate_info tibble/data.frame with the maximal number of API calls per day for the used key, the number of remaining calls for the day and the time at which the number of remaining calls will be reset.

Examples


opencage_forward(placename = "Sarzeau")
opencage_forward(placename = "Islington, London")
opencage_forward(placename = "Triererstr 15,
                              Weimar 99423,
                              Deutschland")

Retrieve Opencage API key

Description

Soft-deprecated lifecycle

Soft-deprecated and will be removed from the package together with opencage_forward() and opencage_reverse().

Retrieves the OpenCage API Key from the environment variable OPENCAGE_KEY.

Usage

opencage_key(quiet = TRUE)

Arguments

quiet

Logical vector of length one indicating whether the key is returned quietly or whether a message is printed.

Reverse geocoding

Description

Soft-deprecated lifecycle

Soft deprecated: use oc_reverse or oc_reverse_df for reverse geocoding.

Usage

opencage_reverse(
  latitude,
  longitude,
  key = opencage_key(),
  bounds = NULL,
  countrycode = NULL,
  language = NULL,
  limit = 10,
  min_confidence = NULL,
  no_annotations = FALSE,
  no_dedupe = FALSE,
  no_record = FALSE,
  abbrv = FALSE,
  add_request = TRUE
)

Arguments

latitude

Numeric vectors of latitude and longitude values.

longitude

Numeric vectors of latitude and longitude values.

key

Your OpenCage API key as a character vector of length one. By default, opencage_key() will attempt to retrieve the key from the environment variable OPENCAGE_KEY.

bounds

Bounding box, ignored for reverse geocoding.

countrycode

Country code, ignored for reverse geocoding.

language

limit

How many results should be returned (1-100), ignored for reverse geocoding.

min_confidence

no_annotations

Logical vector indicating whether additional information about the result location should be returned. TRUE by default, which means that the results will not contain annotations.

no_dedupe

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE the results will not be deduplicated.

no_record

Logical vector of length one (default FALSE), when TRUE no log entry of the query is created, and the geocoding request is not cached by OpenCage.

abbrv

Logical vector (default FALSE), when TRUE addresses in the formatted field of the results are abbreviated (e.g. "Main St." instead of "Main Street").

add_request

Value

A list with

results as a tibble with one line per result,
the number of results as an integer,
the timestamp as a POSIXct object,
rate_info tibble/data.frame with the maximal number of API calls per day for the used key, the number of remaining calls for the day and the time at which the number of remaining calls will be reset.
