{catalog}

CRAN status Dependencies CRAN downloads

Overview

{catalog} gives the user access to the Spark Catalog API making use of the {sparklyr} API. Catalog is the interface for managing a metastore (aka metadata catalog) of relational entities (e.g. database(s), tables, functions, table columns and temporary views).

Installation

You can install:

  • the development version from GitHub with
# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("nathaneastwood/catalog")
  • the latest release from CRAN with
install.packages("catalog")

Usage

{catalog} provides an API matching that of the Catalog API and provides full access to all methods. Below is a small example of some of the functionality.

sc <- sparklyr::spark_connect(master = "local")
mtcars_spark <- sparklyr::copy_to(dest = sc, df = mtcars)

library(catalog)
