set_wrds_credentials {tidyfinance}R Documentation

Set WRDS Credentials

Description

This function prompts the user to input their WRDS (Wharton Research Data Services) username and password, and stores these credentials in a .Renviron file. The user can choose to store the .Renviron file in either the project directory or the home directory. If the .Renviron file already contains WRDS credentials, the user will be asked if they want to overwrite the existing credentials. Additionally, the user has the option to add the .Renviron file to the .gitignore file to prevent it from being tracked by version control.
