Set path to MultiChain binaries

Source: R/node_local.R
mc_set_path.Rd

This function sets the global option multichain.path to the directory containing the MultiChain executables (multichaind and multichain-util). All other functions that need to locate the binaries will use this option.

Usage

mc_set_path(path)

Arguments

path

Character string. Path to the folder containing the MultiChain executables. Must be an existing directory.

Value

Invisibly returns the normalized path (as set in the option) or throws an error if the directory does not exist.

See also

mc_connect for establishing a connection.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Set path to MultiChain installation (example on Unix-like systems)
mc_set_path("/usr/local/bin")

# Check that the option was set correctly
getOption("multichain.path")
} # }
