It's a ground-up rewrite using C++ and Rcpp. Compared to RPostgreSQL, it:\n\n* Has full support for parameterised queries via `dbSendQuery()`, and `dbBind()`.\n\n* Automatically cleans up open connections and result sets, ensuring that you\n don't need to worry about leaking connections or memory.\n\n* Is a little faster, saving ~5 ms per query. (For reference, it takes around 5ms\n to retrive a 1000 x 25 result set from a local database, so this is \n decent speed up for smaller queries.)\n\n* A simplified build process that relies on system libpq.\n\n## Installation\n```R\n# Install the latest RPostgres release from CRAN:\ninstall.packages(\"RPostgres\")\n\n# Or the the development version from GitHub:\n# install.packages(\"remotes\")\nremotes::install_github(\"r-dbi/RPostgres\")\n```\n\nDiscussions associated with DBI and related database packages take place on [R-SIG-DB](https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-db). \nThe website [Databases using R](https://db.rstudio.com/) describes the tools and best practices in this ecosystem.\n\n## Basic usage\n\n```R\nlibrary(DBI)\n# Connect to the default postgres database\ncon <- dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres())\n\ndbListTables(con)\ndbWriteTable(con, \"mtcars\", mtcars)\ndbListTables(con)\n\ndbListFields(con, \"mtcars\")\ndbReadTable(con, \"mtcars\")\n\n# You can fetch all results:\nres <- dbSendQuery(con, \"SELECT * FROM mtcars WHERE cyl = 4\")\ndbFetch(res)\ndbClearResult(res)\n\n# Or a chunk at a time\nres <- dbSendQuery(con, \"SELECT * FROM mtcars WHERE cyl = 4\")\nwhile(!dbHasCompleted(res)){\n chunk <- dbFetch(res, n = 5)\n print(nrow(chunk))\n}\n# Clear the result\ndbClearResult(res)\n\n# Disconnect from the database\ndbDisconnect(con)\n```\n## Connecting to a specific Postgres instance\n\n```R\nlibrary(DBI)\n# Connect to a specific postgres database i.e. Heroku\ncon <- dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres(),dbname = 'DATABASE_NAME', \n host = 'HOST', # i.e. 'ec2-54-83-201-96.compute-1.amazonaws.com'\n port = 5432, # or any other port specified by your DBA\n user = 'USERNAME',\n password = 'PASSWORD')\n\n```\n\n## Design notes\n\nThe original DBI design imagined that each package could instantiate X drivers, with each driver having Y connections and each connection having Z results. This turns out to be too general: a driver has no real state, for PostgreSQL each connection can only have one result set. In the RPostgres package there's only one class on the C side: a connection, which optionally contains a result set. On the R side, the driver class is just a dummy class with no contents (used only for dispatch), and both the connection and result objects point to the same external pointer.\n\n---\n\nPlease note that the 'RPostgres' project is released with a\n[Contributor Code of Conduct](https://rpostgres.r-dbi.org/code_of_conduct).\nBy contributing to this project, you agree to abide by its terms.","jobInfo":{"package":"RPostgres","version":"1.2.1","parsingStatus":"success","parserVersion":1,"parsedAt":"2021-01-07T10:30:24+0000"}}
