download R 3.2.1 on mac OS
thanks, it helps a lot but I get the following instead of downloading: 100 9443 100 9443 0 0 26789 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 46517 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0
, also I tried
fileUrl<- "https://data.baltimorecity.gov/api/views/dz54-2aru/rows.csv?accessType=DOWNLOAD" download.file(fileUrl, destfile="cameras.csv", method="curl")
and the output is: 100 9443 100 9443 0 0 7196 0 0:00:01 0:00:01 --:--:-- 65576 0 --:--:-- 0:00:01 --:--:-- 0 Valentina Blohm Estudiante de Econom?a Facultad de Econom?a y Negocios Universidad de Chile 2016-08-25 22:42 GMT-04:00 David Winsemius <dwinsemius at comcast.net>:

I'm not sure this is really a mac question but since there is a mac issue with downloading that I have solved with package::download I offer this suggestion. Need to know your working or target directory name (or create it with path.expand) since download.file does not do path expansion. Also note that your url is either malformed or at the very least confusing. Cannot tell if it is https: or http:. Should just be: fileUrl <- "http://data.baltimorecity.gov/api/views/dz54-2aru/rows.csv?accessType=DOWNLOAD" # Then with downloader installed and assuming that a ./data/ subdirectory exists: library(downloader) download( fileUrl, destfile=path.expand("./data/cameras.csv") Note that it would be more typical on a Mac to see "~/" than "./" or to see a setwd("./data") call. -- David.
*> download.file(fileUrl, destfile="./data/cameras.csv",method="curl")* *curl: (6) Warning message:* *In download.file(fileUrl, destfile = "./data/cameras.csv", method = "curl") :* * download had nonzero exit status* *Couldn't resolve host 'https:data.baltimorecity.gov <http://data.baltimorecity.gov>'* Thank you Tina
