This package provides a set of functions to search for UK research council funded projects from Gateway to Research.
The package can be installed using the following:
library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("MatthewSmith430/GtR")
library(GtR)Please note that the README is incomplete and will be updated soon
You can search for projects associated with a search term- in the following example I will search for prjects associated with social network analysis
library(GtR)
library(kableExtra)
SNA_projects<-gtr_project_search("social network analysis")

The following functions extract information for projects.
The first function extract information on the projects, and lists all of the organisational collaborators, including both academic and non academic organisations.
This is done for an example project:
library(GtR)
library(pander)
library(magrittr)
library(dplyr)
##Example URL
url<-"https://gtr.ukri.org/projects?ref=G0501806"
##Taking out the abstract text from the data - as this is quite long
##Therefore this means the table is easier to read
PROJ<-gtr_project_extract(url)%>%
select(-abstract_text)
