specify param in R plumber

I created a REST API in R using plumber. 

#* description
#* @param id Unique ID  
#* @get /data/<id:int>

where id is required to be numeric. However, plumber also sets required = true. How can I set type of id to numeric (integer) without setting required to true? Cannot find any hints in the manual.

Solution

  • Try:

    #* description
#* @param id:int Unique ID  
#* @get /data
function(id=NULL) {}

    Is there a way to add optional parameter in API using R Plumber?
