How to Save _cache & _files Folders to Specific Directory

I am using RStudio Version 1.2.5033 and R version 3.6.2 (2019-12-12).
I creating RMarkdown (.rmd) files for my work then generating either PDF's or HTML files for display.
When I knitr the .rmd file to generate the pdf/html I get 2 additional folders/dir,
fileName.pdf
fileName.html
# AND
/fileName_cache
/fileName_files
If I have 10 .rmd files I get 20 garbage '_cache' and '_files' directories generated. Too Much Junk.
Is there a way to save these folders into a directory of my choosing, i.e. /junk/...????

Convert xlsx file to csv file in R when xlsx file is present in hdfs

I want to know how can we convert .xlsx file residing in hdfs to .csv file using R script.
I tried using XLConnect and xlsx packages, but its giving me error 'file not found'.I am providing HDFS location as input in the R script using the above packages.I am able to read .csv files from hdfs using R script (read.csv()).
Do I need to install any new packages for reading .xlsx present in hdfs .
sharing the code i used:
library(XLConnect)
d1=readWorksheetFromFile(file='hadoop fs -cat hdfs://............../filename.xlsx', sheet=1)
"Error: FileNotFoundException (Java): File 'filename.xlsx' could not be found - you may specify to automatically create the file if not existing."
I am sure the file is present in the specified location.
Hope my question is clear. Please suggest a method to resolve it.
Thanks in Advance!
hadoop fs isn't a file, but a command that copies a file from HDFS to your local filesystem. Run this command from outside R (or from inside it using system), and then open the spreadsheet.

Automatically update PDF as I write .Rnw file with knitr

I'm writing a .Rnw file in TextMate when using knitr to convert this file to a .tex file, then converting the .tex file a PDF. I'm wondering if there are any tools available that will automate this process, ie everytime anything updates in the .Rnw file, the PDF also updates? Using knitr to combine R and LaTeX code is great, but I think the conversion process to PDF takes up a lot of time, especially if changes to the .Rnw file are small but need to be cross-checked in the PDF file everytime they are made.
If you are on Linux use inotifywait for that. Most distributions have the package inotify-tools
Then do something like
while inotifywait -e close_write myfile.Rnw; do compile_myfile.sh; done
or
while inotifywait -e delete_self myfile.Rnw; do compile_myfile.sh; done
It depends on how your editor actually saves files. Just try and read the man page.
You have to write compile_myfile.sh of course to compile the .Rnw to .pdf - but I guess you know the commands.
