replyr (version 0.2.0)

replyr: replyr: an R package for fluid use of dplyr

Description

replyr supplies methods to get a grip on working with remote tbl sources (SQL databases, Spark) through dplyr. The idea is to add convenience functions to make such task more like working with an in-memory data.frame. Results do depend on which dplyr service you use.

Details

replyr has the following:

• Make "parametric treatment of variable names" easier through the let command.
• Package common data manipulation tasks into operators such as the gapply function.
• Provide "remote data" (SQL, Spark) replacements for functions commonly used on in-memory data frames.
• Provide bug-fixes and work-arounds for various data services.
• Collect and document clever dplyr tricks.
