1 #' getData
2 #'
3 #' Acquire data as a Data object; see ?Data.
4 #'
5 #' Since series are given in columns (database format), this function builds series one
6 #' by one and incrementally grows a Data object which is finally returned.
7 #'
8 #' @param ts_data Time-series, as a data frame (DB style: 2 columns, first is date/time,
9 #' second is value) or a CSV file.
10 #' @param exo_data Exogenous variables, as a data frame or a CSV file; first column is
11 #' dates, next block are measurements for the day, and final block are exogenous
12 #' forecasts (for the same day).
13 #' @param date_format How date/time are stored (e.g. year/month/day hour:minutes;
14 #' see ?strptime)
15 #' @param limit Number of days to extract (default: Inf, for "all")
16 #'
17 #' @return An object of class Data
