sergeant
: Tools to Transform and Query Data with 'Apache' 'Drill'
Drill + sergeant
is (IMO) a nice alternative to Spark + sparklyr
if you don't need the ML components of Spark (i.e. just need to query "big data" sources, need to interface with parquet, need to combine disparate data source types — json, csv, parquet, rdbms - for aggregation, etc). Drill also has support for spatial queries.
I find writing SQL queries to parquet files with Drill on a local linux or macOS workstation to be more performant than doing the data ingestion work with R (for large or disperate data sets). I also work with many tiny JSON files on a daily basis and Drill makes it much easier to do so. YMMV.
You can download Drill from https://drill.apache.org/download/ (use "Direct File Download"). I use /usr/local/drill
as the install directory. drill-embedded
is a super-easy way to get started playing with Drill on a single workstation and most of my workflows can get by using Drill this way. If there is sufficient desire for an automated downloader and a way to start the drill-embedded
server from within R, please file an issue.
There are a few convenience wrappers for various informational SQL queries (like drill_version()
). Please file an PR if you add more.
The package has been written with retrieval of rectangular data sources in mind. If you need/want a version of drill_query()
that will enable returning of non-rectangular data (which is possible with Drill) then please file an issue.
Some of the more "controlling vs data ops" REST API functions aren't implemented. Please file a PR if you need those.
Finally, I run most of this locally and at home, so it's all been coded with no authentication or encryption in mind. If you want/need support for that, please file an issue. If there is demand for this, it will change the R API a bit (I've already thought out what to do but have no need for it right now).
The following functions are implemented:
DBI
- As complete of an R
DBI
driver has been implemented using the Drill REST API, mostly to facilitate thedplyr
interface. Use theRJDBC
driver interface if you need moreDBI
functionality. - This also means that SQL functions unique to Drill have also been "implemented" (i.e. made accessible to the
dplyr
interface). If you have custom Drill SQL functions that need to be implemented please file an issue on GitHub.
RJDBC
drill_jdbc
: Connect to Drill using JDBC, enabling use of said idioms. SeeRJDBC
for more info.- NOTE: The DRILL JDBC driver fully-qualified path must be placed in the
DRILL_JDBC_JAR
environment variable. This is best done via~/.Renviron
for interactive work. i.e.DRILL_JDBC_JAR=/usr/local/drill/jars/drill-jdbc-all-1.9.0.jar
dplyr
:
src_drill
: Connect to Drill (using dplyr) + supporting functions
See dplyr
for the dplyr
operations (light testing shows they work in basic SQL use-cases but Drill's SQL engine has issues with more complex queries).
Drill APIs:
drill_connection
: Setup parameters for a Drill server/cluster connectiondrill_active
: Test whether Drill HTTP REST API server is updrill_cancel
