rjstat package also works with Eurostat
Eurostat's API supports JSON-Stat, which can be accessed also with the rjstat R package. See examples at: http://www.ssb.no/en/omssb/tjenester-og-verktoy/api/px-api/code-examples. We should at least cite this, or see if it can be utilized in the add-on tools that we have for eurostat data.
We access it with the jsonlite-package now. Is there some benefits switching to the rjstat?
The rjstat package imports jsonlite. Without rjstat I guess you have to code more yourself to handle the json-stat cube.
Then it is a good question whether it is worth the effort to code more, or should we use rjstat and what is the added value.
