# whereami`r if(knitr::opts_knit$get('rmarkdown.pandoc.to')=='gfm-ascii_identifiers') ''`

The goal of whereami is to reliably find where command is run from.

## Installation

``` r

remotes::install_github("yonicd/whereami")

```

## Example

```{r}

library(whereami)

library(ggplot2)

```

### General

```{r basic,R.options=list(width = 50)}

whereami()

```

### Plots

```{r plot}

ggplot(iris) + 

  aes(x=Sepal.Length,y=Sepal.Width) + 

  geom_point() + 

  labs(caption = sprintf('sourced from: %s',whereami()))

```

### Shiny

## Non RStudio session

If you are running a non RStudio script ie from terminal R/Rscript then the package falls back to `thisfile()`, which has been migrated from [rprojroot::thisfile()](https://rprojroot.r-lib.org/reference/thisfile.html). 

In this case the traceback functionality of `whereami()` to return the line where the function was sourced is not enabled.
