Cache Save and Load (Write and Read)

Description

This function lets the user save and load a cache of any R object to improve timings and UX.

Usage

cache_write(
  data,
  base = "temp",
  cache_dir = getOption("LARES_CACHE_DIR"),
  ask = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE,
  ...
)

cache_read(
  base,
  cache_dir = getOption("LARES_CACHE_DIR"),
  ask = FALSE,
  quiet = FALSE,
  ...
)

cache_exists(base = NULL, cache_dir = getOption("LARES_CACHE_DIR"), ...)

cache_clear(cache_dir = getOption("LARES_CACHE_DIR"), quiet = FALSE, ...)

cache_pipe(data, base = "cache_pipe", read = TRUE, write = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

data

Object

base

Character vector. Unique name for your cache file. You can pass a character vector with multiple elements that will be concatenated. All cache files with start with lares_cache_* automatically to quickly detect these cache files.

cache_dir

Character. Where do you want to save you cache files? By default they'll be stored on tempdir() but you can change it using this parameter or setting a global option called "LARES_CACHE_DIR".

ask

Boolean. If cache exists, when reading: (interactive) ask the user if the cache should be used to proceed or ignored; when writing, (interactive) ask the user if the cache should be overwritten. Note that you can only ask for one cache file at a time because vectors are concatenated.

quiet

Boolean. Keep quiet? If not, message will be shown.

...

Additional parameters.

read, write

Boolean. Do you wish to read and or write cache?

Value

cache_write. No return value, called for side effects.

cache_read. R object. Data from cache file or NULL if no cache found.

cache_exists. Boolean. Result of base existence.

cache_clear. Invisible vector containing cache file names removed.

cache_pipe. Same as x or cached result.

Examples

x <- list(a = 1, b = 2:4)
base <- c(as.character(Sys.Date()), "A", "B")
cache_write(x, base)
cache_read(base, ask = FALSE)
cache_exists("lares_cache_2021-06-01.A.B.C")
cache_clear()
