   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
