This function creates a temporary example package. It is used by the
functions in biocthis
to illustrate the functionality of the package
without exposing users to internals of usethis
that users do not need
to use under typical working conditions.
biocthis_example_pkg(name = "biocthisexample", use_git = FALSE)
A character(1)
with the name of the example package.
A logical(1)
indicating whether to set up git
through
usethis::use_git()
on the temporary example package.
A character(1)
with the path to a temporary example package to use
in the examples of the biocthis
functions.
This function creates a package under tempdir()
with the name
provided
and uses usethis::proj_set()
for setting the project directory. Users
do not need to rely on usethis::proj_set()
under typical scenarios. In
other words, if you are running R interactively, usethis
will set the
directory for you.
