R Interface to the 'LadybugDB' Embedded Graph Database
Overview
Provides an R interface to 'LadybugDB', an embedded columnar graph database using the 'Cypher' query language. 'LadybugDB' was formerly known as 'Kuzu'. This package uses native 'Rcpp' bindings to the 'LadybugDB' C library, requiring no 'Python' runtime.
CRAN documentation
- Added return-value documentation for interval formatting and all documented DBI methods, including output classes, contents, and side effects. Clarified return values for result streaming, resource management, and conversions.
- Unwrapped short in-memory examples, guarded the graph example with
requireNamespace(), and added explicit result and connection cleanup. - Removed the deprecated installation-helper example and installation commands from optional-dependency error messages. Functions, examples, and vignettes do not install packages or external software.
CRAN build diagnostics
- The configure script no longer forwards R's diagnostic flags (
-Wall,-pedantic, and related) to the bundled LadybugDB build. The vendored third-party sources use documented compiler extensions that produced significant-warning output on Debian Clang. All other configured flags, including optimisation, debugging, architecture, hardening, and sanitizer settings, are still passed through, and this package's own sources continue to be compiled with R's full flags.
