tbl: Establish a connection to a Hive table

In ZurichPA/honeycomb: dplyr backend for Hive

Description

tbl is a method for the generic tbl

Usage

## S3 method for class 'src_Hive'
tbl(src, from, ...)

Arguments

src	A src_Hive connection object
from	Information to create the table connection (either a string of the table name or a query wrapped in sql)

Details

To create a connection to a Hive table in a database other than the one connected to in src_Hive, simply add the database name when specifying the table name.

In addition to specifying table names in a tbl statement, you can use arbitrary SQL itself to refer to a table. In place of the table name in the tbl statement, simply wrap the desired SQL in a sql call.
