Package website: [release](https://mlr3db.mlr-org.com/) | [dev](https://mlr3db.mlr-org.com/dev/)
Extends the [mlr3](https://mlr3.mlr-org.com/) package with a DataBackend to transparently work with databases.
Two additional backends are currently implemented:
* `DataBackendDplyr`: Relies internally on the abstraction of [dplyr](https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/) and [dbplyr](https://dbplyr.tidyverse.org/).
This allows working on a broad range of DBMS, such as SQLite, MySQL, MariaDB, or PostgreSQL.
* `DataBackendDuckDB`: Connector to [duckdb](https://cran.r-project.org/package=duckdb).
This includes support for Parquet files (see example below).
To construct the backends, you have to establish a connection to the DBMS yourself with the [DBI](https://cran.r-project.org/package=DBI) package.
For the serverless SQLite and DuckDB, we provide the converters `as_sqlite_backend()` and `as_duckdb_backend()`.
## Installation
You can install the released version of mlr3db from [CRAN](https://CRAN.R-project.org) with:
```{r, eval = FALSE}
install.packages("mlr3db")
```
And the development version from [GitHub](https://github.com/) with:
```{r, eval = FALSE}
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("mlr-org/mlr3db")
```
## Example
### DataBackendDplyr
```{r}
library("mlr3db")
# Create a classification task:
task = tsk("spam")
# Convert the task backend from a in-memory backend (DataBackendDataTable)
# to an out-of-memory SQLite backend via DataBackendDplyr.
# A temporary directory is used here to store the database files.
task$backend = as_sqlite_backend(task$backend, path = tempfile())
# Resample a classification tree using a 3-fold CV.
# The requested data will be queried and fetched from the database in the background.
resample(task, lrn("classif.rpart"), rsmp("cv", folds = 3))
```
### DataBackendDuckDB
```{r}
library("mlr3db")
# Get an example parquet file from the package install directory:
# spam dataset (tsk("spam")) stored as parquet file
file = system.file(file.path("extdata", "spam.parquet"), package = "mlr3db")
# Create a backend on the file
backend = as_duckdb_backend(file)
# Construct classification task on the constructed backend
task = as_task_classif(backend, target = "type")
# Resample a classification tree using a 3-fold CV.
# The requested data will be queried and fetched from the database in the background.
resample(task, lrn("classif.rpart"), rsmp("cv", folds = 3))
```
