Clear your giscoR cache dir

Use this function with caution. This function clears your cached data and configuration, specifically:

• Deletes the giscoR config directory (tools::R_user_dir("giscoR", "config")).

• Deletes the cache_dir directory.

• Deletes the values stored on Sys.getenv("GISCO_CACHE_DIR").

Usage

Arguments

# \dontrun{
my_cache <- gisco_detect_cache_dir()
#> ℹ /tmp/RtmpsmC0dv/giscoR

# Set an example cache
ex <- file.path(tempdir(), "example", "cache")
gisco_set_cache_dir(ex, verbose = FALSE)

# Restore initial cache
gisco_clear_cache(verbose = TRUE)
