partition_group: Partition data so that each group is wholly on a node

Description

Partitions data across the cluster such that each group is wholly contained on a single node.

Usage

partition_group_(.self, ..., .dots)

Details

This should not typically be called explicitly; group_by achieves the same thing. Generally speaking it would be fairly pointless to group things and then not have each group fully accessible, but theoretically is possible to so (use group_by (..., auto_partition=FALSE).

Examples

dat <- Multiplyr (x=1:100, G=rep(c("A", "B", "C", "D"), each=25))
dat %>% partition_group (G)
dat %>% shutdown()
