The proxy can be rather easily set by setting the curl options with
something like...
curl - getCurlHandle()
curlSetOpt(.opts = list(proxy = 'address:port'), curl = curl)
response- getURL('http://mydhis',..., curl = curl)
Depends a bit on your proxy of course, so you may have to experiment a bit.

Jason

Wow, you’ve saved me like a week’s worth of life!
I’m having proxy issues here at work, but I’ll try it when I get home. I’ll
try and get it to work first, then take on the connection issues.
Thanks!
Tom

Hi Tom and Lars,
The following R code will retrieve the data as per Lars example, and place
this into an R data frame. Maybe this will help to get you started.
Best Regards,
Jason
library(RCurl)
h = basicTextGatherer()
response-getURL(http://apps.dhis2.org/dev/api/reportTables/data.csv?de=fbfJHSPpUQDde=cYeuwXTCPkUin=Uvn6LCg7dVUou=O6uvpzGd5pulast12Months=true
,userpwd=admin:district,httpauth = 1L,
header=TRUE,headerfunction=h$update)
#Ugly hack to get ride of the header
stripme-paste(HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n,paste(h$value(NULL)[-1],
collapse=),sep=)
data-gsub(stripme,,response)
#Unquote the data
data-noquote(data)
#here is the data.
foo-read.table(textConnection(data),sep=,,header=T)

Thanks, Lars. This is great and very useful! Now I just have to figure out
how to have R pass those parameters to the URL and then return the CSV file
into R.
Thanks again,
Tom

Hi Tom,
if you refer to aggregated data (from the aggregated* tables) there is a way
to do this - unfortunately it is in trunk only and not documented yet - will
try a quick explanation here:
To get the aggregated data you can interact with the reportTables resource.
First you need to look up the ids (uids) of the data elements, indicators,
org units you need using the api starting here (from the snapshot demo in
this example):
http://apps.dhis2.org/dev/api/resources
You can then retrieve the data like this :
http://apps.dhis2.org/dev/api/reportTables/data.xml?de=fbfJHSPpUQDde=cYeuwXTCPkUin=Uvn6LCg7dVUou=O6uvpzGd5pulast12Months=true
You can substitute .xml with any of .json, .jsonp, .csv, .pdf,
.xls, .html.
You can repeat the de, in and ou query params as many times you want to get
data for multiple meta-data objects.
Valid params for periods are
reportingMonth
reportingBimonth
reportingQuarter
lastSixMonth
monthsThisYear
quartersThisYear
thisYear
monthsLastYear
quartersLastYear
lastYear
last5Years
last12Months
last6BiMonths
last4Quarters
last2SixMonths
thisFinancialYear
lastFinancialYear
last5FinancialYears
last52Weeks
Let me know it this helps. Lars
