create_cabinet writes code to the .Rprofile file so
that when new R sessions are started, the newly created
cabinet, an R6 object of class FileCabinet, is available
in the global environment as a hidden object. The cabinet
simply stores file location and file template information
that new_cabinet_proj uses to create new projects
with the pre-defined structure.
create_cabinet(name, directory, structure, .alias = name)Name of the cabinet; character of length 1. This is how the cabinet will be referenced, so best to chose something memorable.
The file path for where the cabinet will exist.
A list of paths of folders/files to create. See details for further explanation.
An optional name for the object the cabinet
will be stored in R as. Defaults to name.
An R6 object of class FileCabinet. The code to generate this object is written to the .Rprofile file of the home directory.
Before writing to or creating a .Rprofile file, cabinets will explicitly ask for the user's permission to on exit. The cabinet structure should be defined using a list with the names defining folder paths. List values should be set to NULL.
