Get Latest Validity for Metadata of a Given Time Series

Because metadata are only loosely coupled with their respective time series in order to keep metadata records constant over multiple version of time series if the data description does not change, it comes in handy to find out the last time meta information was updated. This function automagickally finds exactly this date.

db_meta_get_latest_validity(
  con,
  ts_keys,
  regex = FALSE,
  locale = NULL,
  schema = "timeseries"
)

Arguments

con

RPostgres connection object.

ts_keys

character vector of time series identifiers.

regex

boolean indicating if ts_keys should be interpreted as a regular expression pattern. Defaults to FALSE.

locale

character indicating the language of the meta information to be store. We recommend to use ISO country codes to represent languages. Defaults to NULL. When local is set to NULL, metadata are stored without localization. Note that, when localizing meta information by assigning a language, multiple meta information objects can be stored for a single time series.

schema

character name of the database schema. Defaults to 'timeseries'

Value

data.table of latest validity
