Converts data frame into suitable format to be uploaded to Athena

Description

This method converts data.frame columns into the correct format so that it can be uploaded Athena.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'AthenaConnection'
sqlData(
  con,
  value,
  row.names = NA,
  file.type = c("tsv", "csv", "parquet", "json"),
  ...
)

Arguments

con	A database connection.
value	A data frame
row.names	Either TRUE, FALSE, NA or a string. If TRUE, always translate row names to a column called "row_names". If FALSE, never translate row names. If NA, translate rownames only if they're a character vector. A string is equivalent to TRUE, but allows you to override the default name. For backward compatibility, NULL is equivalent to FALSE.
file.type	What file type to store data.frame on s3, RAthena currently supports ["csv", "tsv", "parquet", "json"]. Note: This parameter is used for format any special characters that clash with file type separator.
...	Other arguments used by individual methods.

Value

sqlData returns a dataframe formatted for Athena. Currently converts list variable types into character split by '|', similar to how data.table writes out to files.
