Source: R/dataload_from_local.R
dataload_from_local.Rd

Utility for analysts / developers to store large block / other data locally instead of redownloading

Usage

dataload_from_local(
  varnames = .arrow_ds_names[1:3],
  envir = globalenv(),
  folder_local_source = NULL,
  justchecking = FALSE,
  testing = FALSE,
  silent = FALSE,
  return_data_table = TRUE
)

Arguments

varnames

use defaults, or vector of names like "bgej" or use "all" to get all available

envir

use defaults. see dataload_from_pins()

folder_local_source

Your local folder path. see dataload_from_pins()

justchecking

use defaults. see dataload_from_pins()

testing

use defaults

silent

set to TRUE to stop cat() printing to console like when running tests

return_data_table

whether the read_ipc_file() should return a data.table (T, the default), or arrow (F)

Value

vector of paths to files (as derived from varnames) that were actually found in folder_local_source, but only for those not already in memory, so it is just the ones loaded from disk because not already in memory and found on disk locally.
