system.file | R Documentation |
This function is meant to intercept calls to base::system.file()
,
so that it behaves well with packages loaded by devtools. It is made
available when a package is loaded with load_all()
.
shim_system.file(..., package = "base", lib.loc = NULL, mustWork = FALSE)
... |
character vectors, specifying subdirectory and file(s) within some package. The default, none, returns the root of the package. Wildcards are not supported. |
package |
a character string with the name of a single package. An error occurs if more than one package name is given. |
lib.loc |
a character vector with path names of R libraries.
See ‘Details’ for the meaning of the default value of |
mustWork |
logical. If |
When system.file
is called from the R console (the global
environment), this function detects if the target package was loaded with
load_all()
, and if so, it uses a customized method of searching
for the file. This is necessary because the directory structure of a source
package is different from the directory structure of an installed package.
When a package is loaded with load_all
, this function is also inserted
into the package's imports environment, so that calls to system.file
from within the package namespace will use this modified version. If this
function were not inserted into the imports environment, then the package
would end up calling base::system.file
instead.
