Summary:

"openalexR helps you interface with the OpenAlex API to retrieve bibliographic infomation about publications, authors, venues, institutions and concepts with 4 main functions: oa_query(): generates a valid query, written following the OpenAlex API syntax, from a set of arguments provided by the user. oa_request(): downloads a collection of entities matching the query created by oa_query() or manually written by the user, and returns a JSON object in a list format. oa2df(): converts the JSON object in classical bibliographic tibble/data frame. oa_fetch(): composes three functions above so the user can execute everything in one step, i.e., oa_query |> oa_request |> oa2df..."
