A few month ago I replaced every setwd and every absolute path in my code by relative paths using the here package. It does work very well generally but there is still an issue.

I’m not using R Projects for this (because of different reasons), so I set up a .here file. If I start RStudio by opening one file out my project folder this works great, as the right root folder gets detected. If I open RStudio and then start using my scripts the here function searches in my default working directory and therefore none of my paths work correctly.

Is there an elegant way to deal with that? Do I miss a feature of the here package?

The idea is really great and way better than setting the working directory every time, but right now I have to close RStudio every time i switch between projects and I always have to remember to start RStudio by opening a file out of my project...

Thank in advance!
