RPostgres

rcc Codecov test coverage CRAN status

RPostgres is an DBI-compliant interface to the postgres database. It's a ground-up rewrite using C++ and cpp11. Compared to RPostgreSQL, it:

  • Has full support for parameterised queries via dbSendQuery(), and dbBind().

  • Automatically cleans up open connections and result sets, ensuring that you don't need to worry about leaking connections or memory.

  • Is a little faster, saving ~5 ms per query. (For reference, it takes around 5ms to retrieve a 1000 x 25 result set from a local database, so this is decent speed up for smaller queries.)

  • A simplified build process that relies on system libpq.

Installation

# Install the latest RPostgres release from CRAN:
install.packages("RPostgres")

# Or the the development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("r-dbi/RPostgres")

Discussions associated with DBI and related database packages take place on R-SIG-DB. The website Databases using R describes the tools and best practices in this ecosystem.

Basic usage

library(DBI)
# Connect to the default postgres database
con <- dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres())

dbListTables(con)
dbWriteTable(con, "mtcars", mtcars)
dbListTables(con)

dbListFields(con, "mtcars")
dbReadTable(con, "mtcars")

# You can fetch all results:
res <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT * FROM mtcars WHERE cyl = 4")
dbFetch(res)
dbClearResult(res)

# Or a chunk at a time
res <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT * FROM mtcars WHERE cyl = 4")
while(!dbHasCompleted(res)){
  chunk <- dbFetch(res, n = 5)
  print(nrow(chunk))
}
# Clear the result
dbClearResult(res)

# Disconnect from the database
dbDisconnect(con)

Connecting to a specific Postgres instance

library(DBI)
# Connect to a specific postgres database i.e. Heroku
con <- dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres(),dbname = 'DATABASE_NAME', 
                 host = 'HOST', # i.e. 'ec2-54-83-201-96.compute-1.amazonaws.com'
                 port = 5432, # or any other port specified by your DBA
                 user = 'USERNAME',
                 password = 'PASSWORD')

Design notes

The original DBI design imagined that each package could instantiate X drivers, with each driver having Y connections and each connection having Z results. This turns out to be too general: a driver has no real state, for PostgreSQL each connection can only have one result set. In the RPostgres package there's only one class on the C side: a connection, which optionally contains a result set. On the R side, the driver class is just a dummy class with no contents (used only for dispatch), and both the connection and result objects point to the same external pointer.
