Sets the directory where downloaded files will be cached. This avoids
repeated downloads of the same data.
Usage
set_cache_dir(path = NULL, persistent = FALSE)
Arguments
- path
A character string with the path to the cache directory.
If NULL, uses a temporary directory (default).
- persistent
Logical. If TRUE, the cache directory setting is
saved to the user's R profile for future sessions.
Value
Invisibly returns the cache directory path.
Examples
# \donttest{
# set a persistent cache directory
set_cache_dir("~/educabR_cache")
#> ✔ cache directory created: /home/runner/educabR_cache
# }
