UploadPredictionDataset: Function to upload new data to a DataRobot project for predictions
Description
The DataRobot prediction engine requires a CSV file containing the data to be
used in prediction, and this has been implemented here in two ways.
The first and simpler is to specify dataSource as the name of this CSV file,
but for the convenience of those who wish to work with dataframes, this
function also provides the option of specifying a dataframe, which is then
written to a CSV file and uploaded to the DataRobot server.
Either (1) a character string giving the unique alphanumeric
identifier for the project, or (2) a list containing the element projectId with this identifier.
dataSource
Either (a) the name of a CSV file (b) a dataframe or
(c) url to publicly available file;
in each case, this parameter identifies the source of the data for which
predictions will be calculated.
maxWait
The maximum time (in seconds) to wait for each of two steps:
(1) The initial dataset upload request, and
(2) data processing that occurs after receiving the response to this initial request.
