rquery
generates more efficient queries, has semantics more consistent with Codd's relational algebra, and performs a lot more up-front checking. Here are some notes we have on rquery
. rquery
hasn't been tested withMonetDBLite
, so it probably would need to shaken down for that sort of application. We are mostly targeting Apache Spark
and PostgreSQL
at the moment (plus in-memory with rqdatatable
, where again it is often much faster than dplyr
).
I checked. rquery
will need some translations define before it can work with MonetDBLite
, so no it isn't ready for that database at this time. It does have a translation layer- I just have not developed the MonetDBLite
translations yet (likely maybe just uppercasing some common functions). I'll add a note when I look into it. Thanks for your help.
Should not have closed this, sorry. I am not working on it right now, but do intend to get to this. Likely it is just changing case or synonyms for a few operators and rquery
has a translation layer just for that.
I have been using dplyr with MonetDBLite for a while, and it literally solves all my problems in my work. I am curious about his rquery package. My first question is what difference does it make compared to the current tidyverse ecosystem? Second, does it work with MonetDBLite?
