Progression Handler: Progress Reported as the Size of a File on the File System
handler_filesize(
file = "default.progress",
intrusiveness = getOption("progressr.intrusiveness.file", 5),
target = "file",
...
)
(character) A filename.
(numeric) A non-negative scalar on how intrusive (disruptive) the reporter to the user.
(character vector) Specifies where progression updates are rendered.
Additional arguments passed to make_progression_handler()
.
This progression handler reports progress by updating the size of a file
on the file system. This provides a convenient way for an R script running
in batch mode to report on the progress such that the user can peek at the
file size (by default in 0-100 bytes) to assess the amount of the progress
made, e.g. ls -l -- *.progress
.
If the *.progress
file is accessible via for instance SSH, SFTP,
FTPS, HTTPS, etc., then progress can be assessed from a remote location.
