Downloading data from NSRR

Token

To retrieve your NSRR token, go to https://sleepdata.org/dashboard, and sign in. This token will allow you access to any data sets you have requested access to. If you do not have access, then it will allow you to download files that are publicly available.

Set the token by adding this to your ~/.Renviron file:

NSRR_TOKEN="YOUR TOKEN GOES HERE"

The token is accessible via token = Sys.getenv("NSRR_TOKEN"). Each nsrr function also has the argument token to pass through if you do not wish to set it.

To determine if you are authenticated, you can use:

library(nsrr)
nsrr_auth()
#> $authenticated
#> [1] FALSE

Examples

NSRR data sets

Here is how you can access the NSRR datasets list:

library(nsrr)
df = nsrr_datasets()
DT::datatable(df)

NSRR data set files

Here we first get a list of the files in the datasets sub-directory from the shhs data set:

df = nsrr_dataset_files("shhs", path = "datasets")
head(df)
#>   dataset                         full_path    folder
#> 1    shhs                  datasets/archive datasets/
#> 2    shhs    datasets/eeg-spectral-analysis datasets/
#> 3    shhs             datasets/hrv-analysis datasets/
#> 4    shhs             datasets/CHANGELOG.md datasets/
#> 5    shhs           datasets/KNOWNISSUES.md datasets/
#> 6    shhs datasets/shhs1-dataset-0.13.0.csv datasets/
#>                  file_name is_file file_size
#> 1                  archive   FALSE         0
#> 2    eeg-spectral-analysis   FALSE         0
#> 3             hrv-analysis   FALSE         0
#> 4             CHANGELOG.md    TRUE     10175
#> 5           KNOWNISSUES.md    TRUE     11284
#> 6 shhs1-dataset-0.13.0.csv    TRUE  24305606

#> 2                             <NA>    FALSE
#> 3                             <NA>    FALSE
#> 4 1432504de974e712e1cd7d99038bdfd5    FALSE
#> 5 c53ea822afa2e78ba601da508562775d    FALSE
#> 6 212cf854c1e04ce6d75cb6580917e3a9    FALSE

Downloading NSRR data set files

We can then download the CHANGELOG.md file as it’s publicly accessible.

url = nsrr_download_url("shhs", path = "datasets/CHANGELOG.md", token = "")
url # print URL
#> [1] "https://sleepdata.org/datasets/shhs/files/m/nsrr-r-v0-1-0/datasets/CHANGELOG.md"
dl = nsrr_download_file("shhs", path = "datasets/CHANGELOG.md", token = "")
dl$outfile
#> [1] "/var/folders/1s/wrtqcpxn685_zk570bnx9_rr0000gr/T//Rtmp9mJfGA/file5adf1d6c51c8.md"
cat(head(readLines(dl$outfile)), sep = "\n")
#> ## 0.13.1 (December 20, 2017)
#> 
#> - Fix odd symbols in variable descriptions
#> 
#> ## 0.13.0 (December 7, 2017)

Listing All NSRR data set files

To list all the files, recursively, you would run:

nsrr_all_dataset_files("shhs")

but it may take some time.
