Examples

# \donttest{
# Create a temporary file with sample book IDs
temp_file <- tempfile(fileext = ".txt")
writeLines(c("1420", "2767052", "10210"), temp_file)

# Scrape reviews
reviews <- scrape_reviews(temp_file, num_reviews = 5, use_parallel = FALSE)

# Preprocess the reviews
preprocessed <- preprocess_reviews(reviews, english_only = TRUE)

# Fit LDA model
lda_model <- fit_lda(preprocessed$dtm, k = 2)

# Print model summary
print(lda_model)
#> A LDA_Gibbs topic model with 2 topics.

# Clean up: remove the temporary file
file.remove(temp_file)
