Hey everybody, do you any of you know how to change one's user agent in rvest? I hear that's something you can do in python (maybe in beautiful soup?), but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it in rvest, if it's possible.
rvest
From Hadley's comment here:
It [rvest] just uses the httr default. If you want to override any of that, construct the request with httr, then pass the result to rvest::html() .
rvest::html()
So, you'd pass a string to httr::user_agent().
httr::user_agent()
