connect_to_childes: Connect to CHILDES

In childesr: Accessing the 'CHILDES' Database

Connect to CHILDES

Description

As of childesr 0.3, data are retrieved from the versioned childes-db dataset on Redivis rather than a MySQL database, so no connection object is needed. 'connect_to_childes()' is deprecated: it warns and returns 'NULL', which can still be passed as the 'connection' argument of the 'get_' functions (where it is ignored).

Usage

connect_to_childes(db_version = "current", db_args = NULL)

Arguments

db_version	String of the name of database version to use
db_args	Deprecated, ignored

Examples

## Not run: 
con <- connect_to_childes(db_version = "current")

## End(Not run)
