Methods (by class)
-
parse_response(wikidiff2)
: Simplify a wikidiff2 response to a dataframe of textual differences, discarding display data -
parse_response(default)
: By default, create a list of nested tbl_dfs -
parse_response(row_list)
: Many of the endpoints return a list of named values for each page, which can easily be row-bound. They often contain nested data, however, which is automatically unnested by dplyr::bind_rows. Hence this more basic approach.
