open file for enviroment in r

To open a file in R, you can use the file function. To specify the file path, you can use the Sys.getenv function to retrieve an environment variable that contains the file path. Here's an example:

main.r
# Retrieve environment variable containing file path
file_path <- Sys.getenv("MY_FILE_PATH")

# Open file for reading
file_conn <- file(file_path, "r")

# Read contents of file
file_contents <- readLines(file_conn)

# Close file connection
close(file_conn)
257 chars
12 lines

Note that we're using readLines to read the contents of the file, but you can use other functions depending on the format of your file. Also, make sure to close the file connection with close when you're done reading from the file.
