cas.write.csv: Write a CAS Table to a CSV File

In sassoftware/R-swat: SAS Scripting Wrapper for Analytics Transfer (SWAT)

Write a CAS Table to a CSV File

Description

This function downloads an in-memory table from the CAS server and saves it as a CSV file that is accesible to R (the client). This function is a convenience wrapper for the R write.csv function.

Usage

cas.write.csv(
  CASTable,
  file = "",
  quote = TRUE,
  eol = "\n",
  na = "NA",
  row.names = TRUE,
  fileEncoding = ""
)

Arguments

CASTable	The instance of the CASTable to save as as a CSV file.
file	An character string that specifies the filename for the CSV file. If you do not specify the file, then the in-memory table name is used with a .csv suffix. This value is passed to write.csv.
quote	An optional logical value or numeric vector. This value is passed to write.csv.
eol	An optional character string that is used as the end-of-line character or characters. This value is passed to write.csv.
na	An optional character string to represent missing values. This value is passed to write.csv.
row.names	An optional logical value or a character vector of row names. This value is passed to write.csv.
fileEncoding	An optional character string that specifies the encoding to use for writing the CSV file. This value is passed to write.csv.
append	An optional logical value This value is passed to write.csv.
sep	An optional character that is used to separate values in the CSV file. This value is passed to write.csv.

This function saves the file on the R client. As an alternative, you can use the cas.table.save generated function to save a server-side CSV file.
