SparkR (version 2.3.0)

attach,SparkDataFrame-method: Attach SparkDataFrame to R search path

Description

The specified SparkDataFrame is attached to the R search path. This means that the SparkDataFrame is searched by R when evaluating a variable, so columns in the SparkDataFrame can be accessed by simply giving their names.

Usage

# S4 method for SparkDataFrame
attach(what, pos = 2L,
  name = deparse(substitute(what), backtick = FALSE), warn.conflicts = TRUE)

Arguments

what

(SparkDataFrame) The SparkDataFrame to attach

pos

(integer) Specify position in search() where to attach.

name

(character) Name to use for the attached SparkDataFrame. Names starting with package: are reserved for library.

warn.conflicts

(logical) If TRUE, warnings are printed about conflicts from attaching the database, unless that SparkDataFrame contains an object
