Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) See Also Examples

When doing a select were the condition is a large number of ids it is not always possible to include them in a single SQL statement. This function will break the list of ids into chunks and allow the indexProcessor to deal with just a small number of ids.

1	batchByIndex(allIndices, indexProcessor, batchSize = 1e+05)

`allIndices`	A vector of values that will be broken into batches and passed as an argument to the `indexProcessor` function.
`indexProcessor`	A function that takes one batch if indices. It is called once for each batch. The return value from this function is ignored. To accumulate results you can write to a global variable using the "<<-" operator.
`batchSize`	The size of each batch. The last batch may be smaller than this value.

No value is returned.
