The goal of adbcdrivermanager is to provide a low-level developer-facing interface to the Arrow Database Connectivity (ADBC) SQLite driver.
You can install the released version of adbcsqlite from CRAN with:
You can install the development version of adbcsqlite from GitHub with:
ADBC drivers for R use a relatively new feature of pkgbuild to enable installation from GitHub via pak. Depending on when you installed pak, you may need to update its internal version of pkgbuild.
This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:
library(adbcdrivermanager)
# Open a new connection to a database
db <- adbc_database_init(
adbcsqlite::adbcsqlite(),
uri = ":memory:"
)
con <- adbc_connection_init(db)
# Write a table
nycflights13::flights |> write_adbc(con, "flights")
# Issue a query
con |>
read_adbc("SELECT * from flights") |>
