`metis`

Helpers for Accessing and Querying Amazon Athena

Including a lightweight RJDBC shim.

In Greek mythology, Metis was Athena’s “helper”.

Description

Still fairly beta-quality level but getting there.

The goal will be to get around enough of the “gotchas” that are preventing raw RJDBC Athena connections from “just working” with dplyr v0.6.0+ and also get around the fetchSize problem without having to not use dbGetQuery().

The AthenaJDBC42_2.0.2.jar JAR file is included out of convenience but that will likely move to a separate package as this gets closer to prime time if this goes on CRAN.

NOTE that the updated driver REQUIRES JDK 1.8+.

See the Usage section for an example.

What’s Inside The Tin?
