Description

This standard method works for all sql sources.

Usage

# S3 method for src_sql
copy_to(dest, df, name = deparse(substitute(df)),
  types = NULL, temporary = TRUE, unique_indexes = NULL, indexes = NULL,
  analyze = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

dest

remote data source

df

local data frame

name

name for new remote table.

types

a character vector giving variable types to use for the columns. See http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html for available types.

temporary

if TRUE, will create a temporary table that is local to this connection and will be automatically deleted when the connection expires

unique_indexes

a list of character vectors. Each element of the list will create a new unique index over the specified column(s). Duplicate rows will result in failure.

indexes

a list of character vectors. Each element of the list will create a new index.

analyze

if TRUE (the default), will automatically ANALYZE the new table so that the query optimiser has useful information.

...

other parameters passed to methods.

Value

a sqlite tbl object

Examples

if (requireNamespace("RSQLite")) {
db <- src_sqlite(tempfile(), create = TRUE)

iris2 <- copy_to(db, iris)
mtcars$model <- rownames(mtcars)
mtcars2 <- copy_to(db, mtcars, indexes = list("model"))

explain(filter(mtcars2, model == "Hornet 4 Drive"))

# Note that tables are temporary by default, so they're not
# visible from other connections to the same database.
src_tbls(db)
db2 <- src_sqlite(db$path)
src_tbls(db2)
}
