Hi!

Im trying hard to get into r since 2 days now with only minor success.

basedataset <- fromJSON("https://public-crest.eveonline.com/market/types/", flatten=TRUE)
colnames(basedataset)


This will return NULL. Idk why. in every tutorial thing ever it returns all the things i can look for.

> my_json <- fromJSON("https://public-crest.eveonline.com/market/types/", flatten=TRUE)
> my_json[,c("id_str")]


I tried anyways but it will result in this error: Error in dataset[, c("id_str")] : incorrect number of dimensions

As you can see just for testing purposes, and tryin to get into it i wanted to get all the ids that are marketable (i gave up doing it with R, i did it through other means)

My next step would have been to get all the volume traded in the last 30 days for all the items in a region wich seems really hard now that I cant even parse the ids.
Can someone point me into the right direction?
