adbcdrivermanager

The goal of adbcdrivermanager is to provide a low-level developer-facing interface to Arrow Database Connectivity (ADBC) for the purposes of driver development, testing, and support for user-facing packages that rely on ADBC drivers.

Installation

You can install the released version of adbcdrivermanager from CRAN with:

install.packages("adbcdrivermanager")

You can install the development version of adbcdrivermanager from GitHub with:

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("apache/arrow-adbc/r/adbcdrivermanager")

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.

install.packages("pkgbuild", pak:::private_lib_dir())
pak::cache_clean()

Example

This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:

library(adbcdrivermanager)

# Get a reference to a database using a driver. The adbcdrivermanager package
# contains a few drivers useful for illustration and testing.
db <- adbc_database_init(adbcsqlite::adbcsqlite())

# Open a new connection to a database
con <- adbc_connection_init(db)

# Write a table
nycflights13::flights |> write_adbc(con, "flights")

# Issue a query
con |>
  read_adbc("SELECT * from flights") |>
  tibble::as_tibble()

One can also interact with the driver manager at a lower level using adbc_connection_*() and adbc_statement_*() functions (see reference documentation for details).
