Functions to use an example data directory for package examples

The documentation of safedata includes code examples using a data directory. A zipped example directory is included in the package files (data/safedata_example_dir.zip) but package code must not write within the package structure. The set_example_safe_dir function is used in code examples to unpack this example directory into a temporary folder and set it for use in the example code. The function unset_example_safe_dir is then used to restore any existing data directory set by the user. The example directory should only be created once per session.

set_example_safe_dir()

unset_example_safe_dir()

Value

The set_example_safe_dir function returns the path of the example directory invisibly.

Functions
