lazyDir: Set and get the lazyR database directory

In PredictiveEcology/lazyR: Create Lazy Load Databases for R Objects

Description

This can be set and gotten with these functions, or all functions can take an argument, lazyDir, manually. lazyDir() is a shorthand for lazyDir(). lazyDir("someDir") is a shorthand for lazyDir("someDir")

Usage

.setLazyDir(lazyDir, create = FALSE)

.getLazyDir()

lazyDir(lazyDir = NA, create = FALSE)

setLazyDir(lazyDir, create = TRUE)

getLazyDir(lazyDir, create = TRUE)

Arguments

lazyDir	Character string of directory to be used for the lazy databases. If lazyDir=NULL, then it removes the active lazy directory. If NA, the default, returns the currently set lazyDir.
create	Logical, passed to checkLazyDir, i.e., it will create dir if it doesn't exist. Default is FALSE.

Value

New lazyDir created (for lazyDir) or currently active lazyDir returned.
