cleanup_temp {flowWorkspace} | R Documentation

## Remove temporary files associatated with flowWorkspace data classes

### Description

These methods immediately delete the on-disk h5 storage associated with cytoframe, cytoset, GatingHierarchy, or GatingSet objects, but only if it is under the directory pointed to by tempdir() or alternatively specified by the temp_dir option. The temp_dir option should be used with caution as it acts as a guard against accidental removal of non-temporary storage.

### Usage

    cf_cleanup_temp(x, temp_dir = NULL)

    cs_cleanup_temp(x, temp_dir = NULL)

    gh_cleanup_temp(x, temp_dir = NULL)

    gs_cleanup_temp(x, temp_dir = NULL)

### Arguments

`x` | a cytoframe, cytoset, GatingHierarchy, or GatingSet object
`temp_dir` | an optional argument designating another path as temporary storage. If specified this will override tempdir() in determining the top directory under which files can safely be removed.

### Details

Use of these functions will generally be unnecessary for most users, but they are provided for workflows that involve repeated creation of such data structures within the same R session to avoid overwhelming temporary storage.
