Get IOBR Cache Directory

Returns the current cache directory for IOBR downloaded data. To comply with CRAN policies, the default cache directory is a session-specific temporary directory. Users can opt-in to a persistent cache by setting `options(IOBR.cache_dir = "your/path")` or using `set_iobr_cache_dir()`.

The cache directory is determined in the following priority order: 1. Function argument `cache_dir` (if provided) 2. Option `IOBR.cache_dir` (if set via `options()`) 3. Default: A session-specific temporary directory (`file.path(tempdir(), "IOBR_cache")`)

Usage

get_iobr_cache_dir(cache_dir = NULL)

Arguments

cache_dir

Optional character string to override the current setting.

Value

Character string with the cache directory path.

Examples

# Get current cache directory (defaults to tempdir)
get_iobr_cache_dir()
#> [1] "/tmp/Rtmpl6GOnm/IOBR_cache"

# Set custom cache directory via options (use tempdir() for examples)
options(IOBR.cache_dir = tempdir())
get_iobr_cache_dir()
#> [1] "/tmp/Rtmpl6GOnm"
