Better documentation about data import and export

Open krlmlr opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

How to get large data into and out of a database?

It's difficult to standardize fast import (https://github.com/r-dbi/DBI/issues/62), but we can document how to do it with dbExecute(). The document

  • would point to arkdb and perhaps other solutions
  • would show, for several DBMS, how to do the importing based on a given CSV file after the file is on the server
    • including pointers to DBMS documentation for the SQL syntax
