ds.write: write outcome of computations to some DataSHIELD server

In patRyserWelch8/dsShareClient: Sharing data between servers in a privacy-preserving manner

Description

. This client-side function writes some data to one or more DataSHIELD servers. The function aims to sent some outcome of computations used in learning algorithms or situations where some servers needs storing outcomes of computations.

It is inspired from the federated learning model in this publication [Federated Machine Learning: Concept and applications](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1902.04885.pdf).

Usage

ds.write(
  data.to.server = NULL,
  class.type.server = "data.frame",
  no.rows = 1000,
  client.side.variable = NULL,
  column.server = NULL,
  datasources = NULL
)

Arguments

data.to.server	- a character argument representing the name of new server variable
class.type.server	- a character argument indicating the a valid class
no.rows	- a numerical (integer) argument indicatind the maximum of rows used in one transfer of data
client.side.variable	- a character argument representing the name of client.side.variable storing the outcome of the computations
column.server	- a character argument representing the name of column used to indicate the server origin
datasources	a list of connections to dataSHIELD servers
