Inspect the local fred cache

Returns information about the local cache: where it lives, how many files it contains, and how much disk space they take. Useful when debugging stale results or deciding whether to call clear_cache().

Usage

fred_cache_info()

Value

A list with elements dir, n_files, size_bytes, size_human, and files (a data frame with name, size_bytes, and modified columns). Returns the same shape with zero counts if the cache directory does not yet exist.
