\title{Force computation of a database query}
\usage{
compute(x, ...)
collect(x, ...)
collapse(x, ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{A data frame, data frame extension (e.g. a tibble), or a lazy
data frame (e.g. from dbplyr or dtplyr). See \emph{Methods}, below, for more
details.}
\item{...}{Arguments passed on to methods}
}
\description{
\code{compute()} stores results in a remote temporary table.
\code{collect()} retrieves data into a local tibble.
\code{collapse()} is slightly different: it doesn't force computation, but
instead forces generation of the SQL query. This is sometimes needed to work
around bugs in dplyr's SQL generation.
All functions preserve grouping and ordering.
}
\section{Methods}{
These functions are \strong{generics}, which means that packages can provide
implementations (methods) for other classes. See the documentation of
individual methods for extra arguments and differences in behaviour.
Methods available in currently loaded packages:
\itemize{
\item \code{compute()}: \Sexpr[stage=render,results=rd]{dplyr:::methods_rd("compute")}
\item \code{collect()}: \Sexpr[stage=render,results=rd]{dplyr:::methods_rd("collect")}
\item \code{collapse()}: \Sexpr[stage=render,results=rd]{dplyr:::methods_rd("collapse")}
}
}
\examples{
\dontshow{if (requireNamespace("dbplyr", quietly = TRUE) && requireNamespace("RSQLite", quietly = TRUE)) (if (getRversion() >= "3.4") withAutoprint else force)(\{ # examplesIf}
mtcars2 <- dbplyr::src_memdb() \%>\%
copy_to(mtcars, name = "mtcars2-cc", overwrite = TRUE)
remote <- mtcars2 \%>\%
filter(cyl == 8) \%>\%
select(mpg:drat)
# Compute query and save in remote table
compute(remote)
# Compute query bring back to this session
collect(remote)
# Creates a fresh query based on the generated SQL
collapse(remote)
\dontshow{\}) # examplesIf}
}
\seealso{
\code{\link[=copy_to]{copy_to()}}, the opposite of \code{collect()}: it takes a local data
frame and uploads it to the remote source.
