Details

Uses duckdb::duckdb() as backend. nodbi creates or uses a DuckDB table, with columns ⁠_id⁠ and json created and used by package nodbi, applying SQL functions as per https://duckdb.org/docs/extensions/json to the json column. Each row in the table represents a JSON document. Any root-level ⁠_id⁠ is extracted from the document(s) and used for column ⁠_id⁠, otherwise a UUID is created as ⁠_id⁠. The table is indexed on ⁠_id⁠. For a benchmark, see https://github.com/ropensci/nodbi#benchmark.
