Package 'fromhere'

Create a File Path Relative to a Project Root

Description

These functions generate file paths relative to the root of a specific type of project. They use criteria from rprojroot to locate the root directory and construct paths using file.path().

Usage

from_here(...)

from_wd(...)

from_rproj(...)

from_r_package(...)

from_remake(...)

from_drake(...)

from_targets(...)

from_pkgdown(...)

from_renv(...)

from_projectile(...)

from_quarto(...)

from_git(...)

from_svn(...)

from_vcs(...)

from_testthat(...)

Arguments

...	Character components of the relative file path.

Details

Functions support two ways to specify paths: as function arguments (e.g., from_r_package("path/to/file")) or using the $ operator (e.g., from_r_package$path$to$file), which supports autocompletion.

The following ⁠from_*⁠ functions are available:

• from_here: For paths relative to the {here} package's automatic project root.

• from_rproj: For R project directories.

• from_r_package: For R package directories.

• from_remake: For remake project directories.

• from_drake: For drake project directories.

• from_targets: For targets project directories.

• from_pkgdown: For pkgdown project directories.

• from_renv: For renv project directories.

• from_projectile: For Projectile project directories.

• from_quarto: For Quarto project directories.

• from_git: For Git repository root directories.

• from_svn: For SVN repository root directories.

• from_vcs: For generic version control root directories (Git or SVN).

• from_testthat: For testthat directories.

Value

A file path which allows further traversal with $ autocompletion.
