adbi

rcc Codecov test coverage CRAN status

Bringing arrow-adbc to R via DBI, adbi aims to provide DBI-compliant database access.

Installation

You can install the development version of adbi from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("r-dbi/adbi")

Example

The data.frame API of DBI is supported.

library(DBI)

# Create an SQLite connection using the adbcsqlite backend
con <- dbConnect(adbi::adbi("adbcsqlite"), uri = ":memory:")

# Write a table
dbWriteTable(con, "swiss", datasets::swiss)

# Query it
dbGetQuery(con, "SELECT * from swiss WHERE Agriculture < 40")

More interestingly, the recent arrow-extension API of DBI is supported as well.

# Prepared statements
res <- dbSendQueryArrow(con, "SELECT * from swiss WHERE Agriculture < ?")

dbBind(res, 30)

ret <- dbFetchArrow(res)
ret$length
#> NULL

dbBind(res, 20)

# Chunked fetches
while (!dbHasCompleted(res)) {
  ret <- dbFetchArrowChunk(res)
  message("fetched ", ret$length, " rows")
}
#> fetched 8 rows

# Cleanup
