Export Project Data to a Zip Archive

Source: R/export_data.R
export_data.Rd

This function exports project-related figures and output data by creating a dedicated export folder within the project directory. It organizes the export folder into subdirectories for figures, CSV files, and RDS files, copies the relevant files from their original locations, and finally compresses the export folder into a zip archive containing only relative file paths.

Usage

export_data()

Value

This function does not return a value. It performs file operations and creates a zip archive in the project folder.

Details

The function performs the following steps:

  1. Constructs paths for the project folder, figures, and output data using global variables (e.g., projects and base_path).

  2. Creates an export folder named export_data_<project_name> within the project folder.

  3. Creates subdirectories within the export folder for figures, CSV files, and RDS files.

  4. Copies figures from the project's figure folder to the export folder.

  5. Copies CSV files from the output CSV folder to the corresponding subfolder in the export directory.

  6. Copies RDS files from the After_cleaning_rds_files subfolder (if present) to the export folder.

  7. Zips the contents of the export folder into a zip archive containing only the relative file paths.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
  # Export project data to a zip archive
  export_data()
} # }
