Data Engineering and BI courses are free this week!
Returns the unquoted names of remote tables accessible through this connection. This should include views and temporary objects, but not all database backends (in particular RMariaDB and RMySQL) support this.
DBI:::methods_as_rd("dbListTables")
dbListTables(conn, ...)dbListTables()
returns a character vector
that enumerates all tables
and views
in the database.
Tables added with dbWriteTable()
are part of the list. As soon a table is removed from the database, it is also removed from the list of database tables.
The same applies to temporary tables if supported by the database.
The returned names are suitable for quoting with dbQuoteIdentifier().
A DBIConnection object, as returned by
dbConnect().
Other parameters passed on to methods.
An error is raised when calling this method for a closed or invalid connection.
Other DBIConnection generics:
DBIConnection-class,
dbAppendTable(),
dbCreateTable(),
dbDataType(),
dbDisconnect(),
dbExecute(),
dbExistsTable(),
dbGetException(),
dbGetInfo(),
dbGetQuery(),
dbIsReadOnly(),
dbIsValid(),
dbListFields(),
dbListObjects(),
dbListResults(),
dbReadTable(),
dbRemoveTable(),
dbSendQuery(),
dbSendStatement(),
dbWriteTable()
if (FALSE) { # requireNamespace("RSQLite", quietly = TRUE)
con <- dbConnect(RSQLite::SQLite(), ":memory:")
dbListTables(con)
dbWriteTable(con, "mtcars", mtcars)
dbListTables(con)
dbDisconnect(con)
}
