Open an EFSA list of endpoints for a substance

Source: R/loep.R
loep.Rd

For this to work as intended, you need to specify an environment variable _derappp_sources_ that points to the directory where the EFSA journal PDF files and other sources are stored.

Usage

loep(string, open = interactive())

Arguments

string

A part of a substance name

open

Should the file be opened using utils::browseURL if present?

Value

If successful, a path to a list of endpoints (invisible)

Details

If more than one substance matches the string given, the user can interactively select one of them. If more than one EFSA conclusion is linked to the substance, the user can again select one. If there is a separate list of endpoints (EFSA conclusions starting from generally have one) and it is available on the path, it is opened instead of the main EFSA conclusion.

Examples

# The function only works if the environment variable _derappp_sources_ has
# the path to a directory with the EFSA journal pdf files.
if (Sys.getenv("_derappp_sources_") != "") {
  loep("Difluf")
  loep("Diflubenzuron")
}
