AWR.Redshift

This is an R client to interact with the AWS Redshift service, including wrapper functions around the Redshift JDBC package.

Installation

The package is not yet hosted on CRAN.

But you can easily install the most recent development version of the R package as well:

devtools::install_github('nfultz/AWR.Redshift')

What is it good for?

This provides a simplified DBI driver for Redshift:

#TODO

Installing and loading the JDBC driver package is handled automatically.

What if I want to do other cool things with Redshift and R?

Most database functionality is actually provided by RJDBC, but if you have Redshift-specific features in mind, please open a ticket on the feature request, or even better, submit a pull request :)

It doesn't work here!
