  ...
)

Additional slots and values passed to struct_class.

Value

A pubchem_compound_lookup object with the following output slots:

updated(annotation_source) The annotation_source after adding data returned by the API.

Inheritance

A pubchem_compound_lookup object inherits the following struct classes:

[pubchem_compound_lookup] -> [rest_api] -> [model] -> [struct_class]

Examples

M = pubchem_compound_lookup( search_by = "cid", output = "cids",
records = "best", base_url =
"https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/rest/pug/compound", url_template =
"<base_url>/<search_by>/<query_column>/<output>/JSON", query_column =
character(0), cache = NULL, status_codes = list(), delay = 0.5,
suffix = "_rest_api")
