Set the Default Global Context

Configure a default SOMAContext to be used by all TileDB-SOMA operations when no explicit context is provided.

Usage

set_default_context(config = NULL, replace = FALSE)

Arguments

config

...

replace

Allow replacing the existing default context with new configuration parameters.

Value

Invisibly, the default default context object.

Details

This function should be called once at the beginning of your session before opening any SOMA objects if you want to customize the TileDB context parameters that will apply to all subsequent operations. Otherwise, a default context will be created automatically with standard parameters when you first open a SOMA object.

If the global context was already set, an error will be raised unless replace=True. Setting a new default context will not change the context for TileDB-SOMA objects that were already created.
