[Bioc-devel] downloads number status shields for packages

[Lori Shepherd]

Hi Marcin,

Here is a link to how Bioconductor creates it's badges:
https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioconductor.org/blob/master/Rakefile#L648

If you would like to create a badge for raw counts the following might
be of use to you. Please also see help on XML Path Language:
https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/#path-abbrev



library(xml2)
url = "http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/bioc/RTCGA.html"
doc = read_html(url)
rtcga = xml_find_all(doc, "//table[@class='stats']/tr/td[2]/text()")
%>% as.character %>% as.integer

url2 = "http://bioconductor.org/packages/stats/index.html"
doc2 = read_html(url2)
all = xml_find_all(doc2, "//table[@class='stats']/tr/td[2]/text()")
%>% as.character %>% as.integer
