Hi list, I am developing a package that will download some data, and I'd like to store it locally to not recalculate it often. The CRAN policy requires tools::R_user_dir to be used and "the contents are actively managed (including removing outdated material)" or using TMPDIR but "such usage should be cleaned up".
When loading a package there is .onLoad or .onAttach to fill or check those files and other settings required for a package. Is there something for when a package is removed? I found some related functions like .Last or reg.fnalizer and setHook or packageEvent but they are about closing a session or don't have a specific event for when uninstalling packages via (remove.packages). I appreciate any feedback, thanks in advance. Best wishes and a happy new year, Lluís ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
