createCohortTables: Create cohort tables

In CohortGenerator: Cohort Generation for the OMOP Common Data Model

Create cohort tables

Description

This function creates an empty cohort table and empty tables for cohort statistics.

Usage

createCohortTables(
  connectionDetails = NULL,
  connection = NULL,
  cohortDatabaseSchema,
  cohortTableNames = getCohortTableNames(),
  incremental = FALSE
)

Arguments

connectionDetails	An object of type connectionDetails as created using the createConnectionDetails function in the DatabaseConnector package. Can be left NULL if connection is provided.
connection	An object of type connection as created using the connect function in the DatabaseConnector package. Can be left NULL if connectionDetails is provided, in which case a new connection will be opened at the start of the function, and closed when the function finishes.
cohortDatabaseSchema	Schema name where your cohort tables reside. Note that for SQL Server, this should include both the database and schema name, for example 'scratch.dbo'.
cohortTableNames	The names of the cohort tables. See getCohortTableNames for more details.
incremental	When set to TRUE, this function will check to see if the cohortTableNames exists in the cohortDatabaseSchema and if they exist, it will skip creating the tables.
