When activated, dev_mode creates a new library for storing installed packages. This new library is automatically created when dev_mode is activated if it does not already exist. This allows you to test development packages in a sandbox, without interfering with the other packages you have installed.

dev_mode(on = NULL, path = getOption("devtools.path"))

Arguments

on

turn dev mode on (TRUE) or off (FALSE). If omitted will guess based on whether or not path is in .libPaths()

path

directory to library.

Examples

if (FALSE) { dev_mode() dev_mode() }
