Overview

About

Maintained by Timothy H. KeittCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗

Allows ad hoc queries and reading and writing data frames to and from a database.

Install

R (source archive)pak (dev)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/rpg/rpg_1.6.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "rpg_1.6.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (1.6) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("thk686/rpg")

Development version from thk686/rpg. Installs pak first if it is not already available.
