Fixes #54. Here I have opted to check for the environment variable at the point where the existing
const DATA_DIR
is defined. This gets bound up in the precompilation such that if a user wants to redefine the data directory after precompilation, they would have to manually re-compile withBase.compilecache(Base.identify_package("PowerSystemCaseBuilder"))
. If that is acceptable, I'll go ahead and write the documentation for how to use this new feature. If not, we will probably have to replace uses ofDATA_DIR
with calls to a function that checks the environment variable each time; I am not opposed to this but I thought I'd be conservative with my first pass.
