Pull metadata from a location

Pull metadata from a location, updating the index. This should always be relatively quick as it updates only small files that contain information about what can be found in remote packets.

Usage

orderly_location_pull_metadata(location = NULL, root = NULL, locate = TRUE)

Arguments

location

The name of a location to pull from (see orderly_location_list for possible values). If not given, pulls from all locations. The "local" and "orphan" locations are always up to date and pulling metadata from them does nothing.

root

The path to the root directory, or NULL (the default) to search for one from the current working directory if locate is TRUE. This function does not require that the directory is configured for orderly, and can be any outpack root (see orderly_init for details).

locate

Logical, indicating if the root should be searched for. If TRUE, then we looks in the directory given for root (or the working directory if NULL) and then up through its parents until it finds an .outpack directory or orderly_config.yml

Value

Nothing
