sql_node {rquery}R Documentation

Make a general SQL node.

Description

Make a general SQL node.

Usage

sql_node(
  source,
  exprs,
  ...,
  mods = NULL,
  orig_columns = TRUE,
  expand_braces = TRUE,
  translate_quotes = TRUE,
  env = parent.frame()
)

Arguments

source

source to work from.

exprs

SQL expressions

...

force later arguments to bind by name

mods

SQL modifiers (GROUP BY, ORDER BY, and so on)

orig_columns

logical if TRUE select all original columns.

expand_braces

logical if TRUE use col notation to ensure col is a column name.

translate_quotes

logical if TRUE translate quotes to SQL choice (simple replacement, no escaping).

env

environment to look to.

Value

sql node.
