Set the data path — geodata

This function allows you set or get the default download cache path for the geodata package. The default path is ignored if you set the path argument in a geodata function to another value.

A special value is "user_data_dir". This sets it to the location returned by file.path(rappdirs::user_data_dir(), "geodata")

Alternatively, you can also set a system variable "GEODATA_PATH" to the desired path.

geodata_path(path, persistent=TRUE)

Arguments

path: character. Path name where geodata should be download and cache data. If missing, the current default path is returned. Use NA to restore the original value
persistent: logical. Should the path be persistent (automatically used in future R sessions)?

Value

character

Examples

geodata_path()
#> [1] ""
