googledrive-configuration: googledrive configuration

In googledrive: An Interface to Google Drive

googledrive configuration

Description

Some aspects of googledrive behaviour can be controlled via an option.

Usage

local_drive_quiet(env = parent.frame())

with_drive_quiet(code)

Arguments

env	The environment to use for scoping
code	Code to execute quietly

Auth

Read about googledrive's main auth function, drive_auth(). It is powered by the gargle package, which consults several options:

• Default Google user or, more precisely, email: see gargle::gargle_oauth_email()

• Whether or where to cache OAuth tokens: see gargle::gargle_oauth_cache()

• Whether to prefer "out-of-band" auth: see gargle::gargle_oob_default()

• Application Default Credentials: see gargle::credentials_app_default()

Messages

The googledrive_quiet option can be used to suppress messages from googledrive. By default, googledrive always messages, i.e. it is not quiet.

Set googledrive_quiet to TRUE to suppress messages, by one of these means, in order of decreasing scope:

• Put options(googledrive_quiet = TRUE) in a start-up file, such as .Rprofile, or at the top of your R script

• Use local_drive_quiet() to silence googledrive in a specific scope

  foo <- function() {
    ...
    local_drive_quiet()
    drive_this(...)
    drive_that(...)
    ...
  }
  

• Use with_drive_quiet() to run a small bit of code silently

  with_drive_quiet(
    drive_something(...)
  )
  

local_drive_quiet() and with_drive_quiet() follow the conventions of the the withr package (https://withr.r-lib.org).

Examples

# message: "Created Drive file"
(x <- drive_create("drive-quiet-demo", type = "document"))

# message: "File updated"
x <- drive_update(x, starred = TRUE)
drive_reveal(x, "starred")

# suppress messages for a small amount of code
with_drive_quiet(
  x <- drive_update(x, name = "drive-quiet-works")
)
x$name

# message: "File updated"
x <- drive_update(x, media = drive_example_local("chicken.txt"))

# suppress messages within a specific scope, e.g. function
unstar <- function(y) {
  local_drive_quiet()
  drive_update(y, starred = FALSE)
}
x <- unstar(x)
drive_reveal(x, "starred")

# Clean up
drive_rm(x)
