envsetup

Overview

The purpose of this package is to support the setup of the R environment. The two main features are:

• autos to automatically source files and/or directories into your environment

• paths to consistently set path objects across projects for I/O

Both are implemented using a configuration file to allow easy, custom configurations that can be used for multiple or all projects.

Installation

install.packages("envsetup")

Development version

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("pharmaverse/envsetup")

Usage

1. Create the _envsetup.yml configuration file to specify your autos and paths and store centrally. See vignette("config") for more details on how to create your config.
2. Create or update your .Rprofile to read in the config and call rprofile()

library(envsetup)

# read configuration
envsetup_config <- config::get(file = "path/to/_envsetup.yml")

# pass configuration to rprofile() to setup the environment
rprofile(envsetup_config)
