file.path {base} | R Documentation |
Construct the path to a file from components in a platform-independent way.
file.path(..., fsep = .Platform$file.sep)
... |
character vectors. |
fsep |
the path separator to use. |
The implementation is designed to be fast (faster than
paste
) as this function is used extensively in R itself.
It can also be used for environment paths such as PATH and
R_LIBS with fsep = .Platform$path.sep
.
Trailing path separators are invalid for Windows file paths apart from
‘/’ and ‘d:/’ (although some functions/utilities do accept
them), so a trailing /
or \
is removed.
A character vector of the arguments concatenated term-by-term and
separated by fsep
if all arguments have positive length;
otherwise, an empty character vector (unlike paste
).
The components are by default separated by /
(not \
) on Windows.
