I am trying to use built-in data in an R package (this package here.

I've used the usethis::use_data_raw() and usethis::use_data() (formerly from the devtools package) to set up a directory (and script) to process the raw data and the directory with the raw data itself (see data-raw and data here.

However, when I load the package and then type the name of the data - inaugural_addresses - it does not load. However, when I load the package and run data("inaugural_addresses"), it loads the data.frame into the environment, e.g.:

> inaugural_addresses
Error: object 'inaugural_addresses' not found
> data("inaugural_addresses")
# this loads the data.frame into the environment

It seems like I must be not documenting something correctly - but I can't find out what. How can I load the built-in data without the use of the data() function?
