pbSetup: Create a JSON config file

In RPushbullet: R Interface to the Pushbullet Messaging Service

Description

Create a JSON config file

Usage

pbSetup(apikey, conffile, defdev)

Arguments

apikey	An Access Token provided by Pushbullet (see details). If not provided in the function call, the user will be prompted to enter one.
conffile	A string giving the path where the configuration file will be written. RPushbullet will automatically attempt load from the default location ~/.rpushbullet.json (which can be changed via a rpushbullet.dotfile) entry in options).
defdev	An optional value for the default device; if missing (or NA) then an interactive prompt is used.

Details

This function writes a simple default configuration file based on a given apikey. It is intended to be run once to help new users setup RPushbullet. Running multiple times without overriding the config_file parameter will overwrite the default file. An Access Token may be obtained for free by logging into the Pushbullet website, going to https://www.pushbullet.com/#settings, and clicking on "Create Access Token".

Value

NULL is returned invisibly, but the function is called for its side effect of creating the configuration file.
