`wbids` is an R package to access and analyze the World Bank’s [International Debt Statistics (IDS)](https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/search/dataset/0038015/). IDS provides creditor-debtor relationships between countries, regions, and institutions. 'wbids' enables users to download, process and work with IDS series across multiple geographies, counterparts, and time periods.
The `wbids` package relies on a redefinition of the original World Bank data: 'geographies' contain both countries and regions, while 'counterparts' include both counterpart areas and institutions. `wbids` provides a consistent mapping of identifiers and names across these different types. The corresponding [package vignette](https://teal-insights.github.io/r-wbids/articles/data-model.html) provides more details on the data model.
This package is a product of Teal Insights and not sponsored by or affiliated with the World Bank in any way, except for the use of the World Bank IDS API.
## Installation
You can install `wbids` from CRAN via:
```r
install.packages("wbids")
```
You can also install the development version of `wbids` like this:
```r
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("teal-insights/r-wbids")
```
## Usage
The main function `ids_get()` provides an interface to download multiple IDS series for multiple geographies and counterparts and specific date ranges.
```r
library(wbids)
ids_get(
geographies = c("ZMB", "ZAF"),
series = c("DT.DOD.DPPG.CD", "BM.GSR.TOTL.CD"),
counterparts = c("216", "231"),
start_date = 2015,
end_date = 2020
)
```
The package comes with prepared metadata about available series, geographies, counterparts, and topics. Please consult the [package vignette](https://teal-insights.github.io/r-wbids/articles/data-model.html) for details.
```r
ids_list_series()
ids_list_geographies()
ids_list_counterparts()
ids_list_series_topics()
```
This data can be used to enrich the IDS series or facilitate data discovery. For further applications, please consult [Teal Insights’ Guide to Working with the World Bank International Debt Statistics](https://teal-insights.github.io/teal-insights-guide-to-wbids/).
The interface and column names are fully consistent with World Development Indicators (WDI) data provided through the `wbwdi` package. You can find details on [github.com/tidy-intelligence/r-wbwdi](https://github.com/tidy-intelligence/r-wbwdi).
