When directory "./one/two/" does not exist, the call below behaves as expected by (a) creating a directory "./one/two/" and (b) creating a file "./one/two/meve_nhd.gpkg".
NHD <- get_nhd(
template = FedData::meve,
label = "meve",
extraction.dir = "./one/two/")
However, if you run this same exact line again, now that directory "./one/two/" already exists, the call instead creates a file "./one/twomeve_nhd.gpkg". This occurs even if the original "./one/two/meve_nhd.gpkg" file is deleted before running the second attempt.
Aside from saving the file to the wrong direct and the wrong name, this error effectively renders useless force.redo = TRUE.
Adding a "/" to the third line of the function, as follows, seems to fix the problem (a slash like this is indeed used in analogous lines of functions like get_ssurgo(), get_ned(), get_daymet(), etc.), but I can't say I understand why the behavior is different depending on whether or not the directory already exists.
out_dsn <- paste0(extraction.dir, "/", label, "_nhd.gpkg")
