This is a simple package for project management in R. The folder structure looks like

• Root folder
• project.ini
• Project1
  • config.ini
  • Rcode
  • Resources
  • Results
• Project2
  • config.ini
  • Rcode

Each project has a prefix (short name), e.g. p1 for Project1 and p2 for Project2. All common functions for each project are stored in to Rcode subfolder named as prefix+Functions (e.g. p1Functions.R for Project1 and p2Functions.R for Project2).

How to use

• Source functions in the project. Using project_fun to source functions in a project. You can write R codes and functions in the files, but project_fun will skip all R codes.

# Only p1Functions.R
project_fun()
# All functions in the Rcode folder
project_fun(all = TRUE)
# Functions from another project if you are working in Project 1
project_fun(project = 'p2')

• Generate file path in project. You can run R codes from any subfolders in a project. project_filepath will generate the correct file path.

# File in current project
project_filepath('Resources/tmp.csv')
# File in another project
project_filepath('Resources/tmp.csv', project = 'p2')
