Read a target's return value from its file in
_targets/objects/. For dynamic files (i.e. format = "file")
the paths are returned.
Usage
tar_read(name, branches = NULL, meta = tar_meta())
Arguments
name
Symbol, name of the target to read.
branches
Integer of indices of the branches to load
if the target is a pattern.
meta
Data frame of metadata from tar_meta().
tar_read() with the default arguments can be inefficient for large
pipelines because all the metadata is stored in a single file.
However, if you call tar_meta() beforehand and supply it to the meta
argument, then successive calls to tar_read() may run much faster.
Value
The target's return value from its file in
_targets/objects/, or the paths to the custom files and directories
if format = "file" was set.
