The devtools::use_data_raw() function creates a "data-raw" directory for this purpose, and adds it to .Rbuildignore so that it's not included in the built package. Your scripts can then write the data to the proper place using devtools::use_data().

Hello,

What is the best way of keeping R scripts that are used to generate the data 
files in the data/ folder? These are not meant to be available to the user, but 
I would like to keep them in the package itself. Right now I am storing them 
inside data/, for example PKG/data/datasetone.R to create 
PKG/data/dataseton.RData, and then adding those R files to .Rbuildignore.

Are there any other sensible ways of doing this?

Thanks,


Iago
