# openaccess

<!-- badges: start -->

openaccess provides a simple check of [open access](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_access) for scientific papers. The only data required is a DOI. The list of supported journals grows steadily, see below for the current list of verified sources.

## Installation

You can install the development version of openaccess from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with:

```{r, eval=FALSE}
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("turtletopia/openaccess")
```

## How to use

You'd most often check the open access status by passing the DOI.

```{r with_doi, cache=TRUE}
library(openaccess)
is_open_access("10.1093/nar/gkac882")
```

However, if you already have a HTML content, there's no point in extracting the DOI to download the site again.

```{r with_html, cache=TRUE}
site <- rvest::read_html("https://academic.oup.com/nar/article/51/D1/D352/6761729")
is_open_access(site)
```

Some sites require prior configuration of Selenium remote driver.

```{r with_selenium, cache=TRUE}
# Settings must match your local setup
start_remote_driver(port = 4567, browserName = "firefox")
is_open_access("10.1073/pnas.211412398")
```

## Verified journals

The following journals were validated against the solution and split into two groups: supported and unsupported. Any journal not specified here is not supported either, although with the lack of support coming from not having evaluated the journal yet instead of objective obstacles.

## End notes

I believe in equal rights and treatment for everybody, regardless of their sexuality, gender identity, skin tone, nationality, and other features beyond human control. Thus, I do not allow openaccess to be used in any project that promotes hate based on the aforementioned factors.
