manage_cache: Manage locally cached CRU CL v. 2.0 files

In getCRUCLdata: 'CRU' 'CL' v. 2.0 Climatology Client

Description

Manage cached getCRUCLdata files with hoardr

Details

The default cache directory is file.path(rappdirs::user_cache_dir(), "R/getCRUCLdata"), but you can set your own path using manage_cache$cache_path_set()

manage_cache$cache_delete only accepts one file name, while manage_cache$cache_delete_all does not accept any names, but deletes all files. For deleting many specific files, use manage_cache$cache_delete in an lapply() type call.

Useful user functions

• manage_cache$cache_path_get() - get cache path

• manage_cache$cache_path_set() - set cache path

• manage_cache$list() - returns a character vector of full path file names

• manage_cache$files() - returns file objects with metadata

• manage_cache$details() - returns files with details

• manage_cache$delete() - delete specific files

• manage_cache$delete_all() - delete all files, returns nothing
