Clone a remote cache or download a remote cache package
clonecache(origin, cachedir = ".cache", all.files = FALSE, id = NULL)
origin |
character, URL of remote cache |
cachedir |
character, path to local cache directory in which remote cache will be cloned |
all.files |
logical, should all database files be downloaded? |
id |
character, identifier for a cache packages stored in a remote archive |
If clonecache is given a URL via its origin argument,
then that cache is cloned and (by default) all of the metadata from
the remote cache is copied to the local directory indicated by
cachedir. If all.files = TRUE then the database files
are also downloaded.
If id is non-NULL, then the origin argument is
ignored and the package corresponding to the ID is downloaded from a
remote archive (as set determined by getConfig("archive").
Nothing is returned; a cache directory is created and metadata are downloaded to it.
