Returns the contents of a database table given by name as a data frame.
Usage
# S4 method for class 'SQLiteConnection,character'
dbReadTable(
conn,
name,
...,
row.names = pkgconfig::get_config("RSQLite::row.names.table", FALSE),
check.names = TRUE,
select.cols = NULL
)Arguments
- conn
a
SQLiteConnectionobject, produced byDBI::dbConnect()- name
a character string specifying a table name. SQLite table names are not case sensitive, e.g., table names
ABCandabcare considered equal.- ...
Needed for compatibility with generic. Otherwise ignored.
- row.names
Either
TRUE,FALSE,NAor a string.If
TRUE, always translate row names to a column called "row_names". IfFALSE, never translate row names. IfNA, translate rownames only if they're a character vector.A string is equivalent to
TRUE, but allows you to override the default name.For backward compatibility,
NULLis equivalent toFALSE.- check.names
If
TRUE, the default, column names will be converted to valid R identifiers.- select.cols
Deprecated, do not use.
Details
Note that the data frame returned by dbReadTable() only has
primitive data, e.g., it does not coerce character data to factors.
