Builds URL for a monarch GET request.

Source: R/utils.R

The path needs to be safely encoded.

build_monarch_url(path, query = NULL)

Arguments

path	A path as a list to the monarch resource to use.
query	A list of url parameter settings. TRUE FALSE set to "true" "false".

Value

URL as a safely encoded string.

Details

But the query apparently will be re-encoded, even if it is already encoded. So it is best not to do any or our own encoding on the query list.

url <- httr::modify_url("https://api.monarchinitiative.org", path = "test query = list(x='this_is:ok', y="but_this_is "https://api.monarchinitiative.org/test

m_path <- "/api/bioentity/gene"
gene <- "NCBIGene%3A8314"
url <- build_monarch_url(path = list(m_path, gene),
                         query = list(rows = 100,
                         fetch_objects = "true",
                         format = "json"))
url <- build_monarch_url(path = list(m_path, gene),
                         query = list(rows = 100,
