Load the site configuration for the modular Shiny application
Source:R/loadSiteConfig.R
loadSiteConfig.RdReads the user's site-configuration file (~/.nprcgenekeepr_config, or
~/_nprcgenekeepr_config on Windows) using the tolerant
getSiteInfo parser, which handles the documented configuration
format (comment lines, blank lines, and multi-line / quoted /
comma-separated values; see
inst/extdata/example_nprcgenekeepr_config). The call is wrapped in
tryCatch so that a missing or malformed configuration file can never
crash the application on boot: in that case a warning is logged and
NULL is returned.
Value
A named list of site information (as returned by
getSiteInfo) when a configuration file is present and
parseable; otherwise NULL.
Details
This replaces a former read.table(sep = "=") call in the application
server that assumed a strict two-column table, could not parse the documented
format, and crashed runModularApp at startup (issue #50).
