Download metabodecon Example Datasets

Downloads example datasets that can be used to test the functionality of the metabodecon package. These datasets are not included in the package by default due to size constraints. The datasets are downloaded as zip file and extracted automatically, unless extraction is disabled by the user.

Usage

download_example_datasets(
  dst_dir = NULL,
  extract = TRUE,
  persistent = NULL,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  silent = FALSE
)

Arguments

dst_dir

The destination directory where the downloaded datasets will be stored. If NULL, the function will return the path to the cached zip file.

extract

Logical. If TRUE, the downloaded zip file will be extracted.

persistent

Logical. If TRUE, the downloaded datasets will be cached at datadir_persistent() to speed up future calls to download_example_datasets(). If FALSE, the datasets will be cached at datadir_temp(). If NULL, the function will check both paths for the cached datasets but will return datadir_temp() if the cached file does not yet exist.

overwrite

Logical. If TRUE, existing files with the same name in the destination directory will be overwritten.

silent

Logical. If TRUE, no output will be printed to the console.

Value

The path to the downloaded (and possibly extracted) datasets.
