The directory where downloaded ESTBAN files are kept. Resolution order:
Usage
estban_cache_dir(cache_dir = NULL, create = TRUE)
Arguments
- cache_dir
Optional directory path. When NULL, the resolution
order above applies.
- create
Logical. Create the directory when it does not exist
(default TRUE).
Value
A normalized directory path (character scalar).
Details
the cache_dir argument;
the ESTBANR_CACHE_DIR environment variable;
the estbanr.cache_dir R option;
a session-scoped folder under base::tempdir() (the default, so the
package never writes outside the temporary directory unless you opt
in).
Set one of the persistent options (2 or 3) to keep files across sessions
and avoid re-downloading months you already have.
Examples
estban_cache_dir()
#> [1] "/tmp/RtmpFYY98v/estbanr-cache"
# Persistent cache for the current session only:
old <- options(estbanr.cache_dir = file.path(tempdir(), "estban-cache"))
estban_cache_dir()
#> [1] "/tmp/RtmpFYY98v/estban-cache"
options(old)
