cloud_drive_browse {cloudfs}

Browse project's Google Drive folder

Description

Opens project's Google Drive folder in browser.

Usage

cloud_drive_browse(path = "", root = NULL)

Arguments

path

(optional) Path inside the Google Drive folder to open. Defaults to the root level (path = "") of the project's folder.

root

Google Drive ID or URL of the project root. This serves as the reference point for all relative paths. When left as NULL, the root is automatically derived from the cloudfs.drive field of the project's DESCRIPTION file.

Details

Google Drive file structure is different from the usual file structure like e.g. on Linux or Windows. A folder on Google Drive can have two or more child folders with the same name. Google Drive marks files and folders with so-called id values to distinguish between them. These values are always unique. You can see them in browser URL for example. The concept of "name" is in the first place for convenience of the end user.

In such a setup a relative file path may correspond to multiple files or folders. This function however works under assumption that the relative path you pass to it defines strictly one object. If there's any ambiguity it throws an error.

Value

Invisibly returns NULL. The primary purpose of this function is its side effect: opening the specified Google Drive folder in a browser.

Examples

cloud_drive_browse()
cloud_drive_browse("models/kmeans")
