Create ArtifSet instance

setup_artifacts(
  type = "bioc",
  version = "3.17",
  date,
  hostnames = hostnames_by_release(version),
  cache = BiocFileCache::BiocFileCache(),
  destination = tempfile(),
  verbose = TRUE,
  extracted = NULL,
  url = NULL
)

Arguments

type: character(1) defaults to 'bioc' which implies 'software'; see Note.
version: character(1) defaults to "3.17"
date: character(1) "yyyy-mm-dd", not obligatory but can be used to retrieve earlier cache entry
hostnames: character() vector of host names for which build artifacts are available
cache: instance of `BiocFileCache::BiocFileCache()`
destination: character(1) path to folder to use for artifacts
verbose: logical(1) if TRUE (default) will provide message about tar activity
extracted: defaults to NULL, if non-null a character(1) path to folder that holds `report` folder
url: character(1) passed to `get_report_tgz_cacheid`

Note

Use bbsBuildArtifacts:::valid_types() to see valid values for `type`. The logic of managing artifacts from multiple dates is very cumbersome and may be unreliable, but the 'date of tarball production' will be reported for each ArtifSet.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
z = setup_artifacts(type="bioc", version="3.17")
z
}
