whereami
The goal of whereami is to reliably find where command is run from.

Shiny
Non RStudio session
If you are running a non RStudio script ie from terminal R/Rscript then the package falls back to thisfile()
, which has been migrated from rprojroot::thisfile().
In this case the traceback functionality of whereami()
to return the line where the function was sourced is not enabled.
