Dear list members, how to download databases using package getQuandl?
The getQuandl package was contributed by Yi-Nung Yang, so the gretl
developers don't have any special insight to offer. The package
looks potentially useful, but it is certainly under-documented: the
help text offers no guidance on the arguments to the getQuandl()
function.
If you open the browser for installed packages (/Tools/Function
packages/On local machine), one of the right-click options for the
selected package is "View code". Looking at the code for getQuandl()
gives slightly more of a clue as to what's going on; and I guess
that if you visited the Quandl website that might shed some more
light.
It's only recently that we've started exerting some editorial
control over contributed function packages; on today's criteria we
would require proper documentation before approving such a package.
