Run a one-off query against a remote Quack server

Sends a single SQL query to a Quack server and returns the result as a data.frame. Unlike attach_quack(), this does not attach the remote catalog, so it is a quick way to pull a result without changing the session state.

Usage

quack_query(uri, query, token = NULL, disable_ssl = FALSE)

Arguments

uri

Address of the Quack server, for example "quack:localhost".

query

A SQL query string to run on the server.

token

Authentication token expected by the server. If NULL, a Quack secret is used if one exists.

disable_ssl

Connect over plain HTTP instead of HTTPS (default FALSE).

Value

A data.frame with the query result.

quack_query(
  "quack:data.example.org",
  "SELECT count(*) FROM adsl",
  token = "super_secret"
)
} # }
