Different archiveTags option for artifact tags and user tags

[julian-urbano]

In saveToLocalRepo, there is option archiveTags (boolean) to decide whether to store the tags along with the artifact. Currently, this controls whether to save artifact tags and user tags at the same time, but it'd be nice if we could control them separately.

For instance:

> d <- data.frame(a = 1:2, b = 3:4, c = 5:6)
> saveToLocalRepo(d, archiveTags = TRUE, userTags = c("tag1:val1", "tag2:val2"))
[1] "fbade4980847650272e6d755f6a2e5f4"
> showLocalRepo(method = "tags")

It saves the artifact tags (column names), as well as the user tags. If we set archiveTags=FALSE we get:

> d <- data.frame(a = 1:2, b = 3:4, c = 5:6)
> saveToLocalRepo(d, archiveTags = FALSE, userTags = c("tag1:val1", "tag2:val2"))

> showLocalRepo(method = "tags")
                          artifact                                           tag         createdDate

It saves no tag.

So I think it'd be good if we could control whether to save (or not) artifact tags and user tags separately.

@julian-urbano thanks for the idea. I think this might be doable : ) I'll consider this and let you know.

[MarcinKosinski]

It requires small changes in https://github.com/pbiecek/archivist/blob/master/R/saveToRepo.R#L198

[MarcinKosinski]

@julian-urbano this should now be possible (with ver 2.1.3 available from GitHub)

[julian-urbano]

Great!
