Question

我正在尝试连接或回收12年的调查数据，每个调查数据包含数百万个观测数据和一百个左右的变量，以便在考虑调查结构的同时分析年度趋势。最近发布的MonetDBLite for R似乎是为这个大型数据集实现基于列的DBMS的绝佳机会。但是，我很难组合数据集。

简而言之，使用plyr :: r.bind.fill到DBI：dbWriteTable返回一个截断的表。 r.bind.fill是理想的，因为数据集的变量每年都不同。使用dplyr :: rbind_all似乎根本不起作用。一种不太有用的方法（但仍然可以接受）涉及删除列以使表相同并使用直接的UNION ALL SQL操作。但这会返回语法错误。

我对dplyr和MonetDB很新，所以这肯定是由于我自己的无知，但我花了几天时间在网上搜索没有运气，所以任何帮助都会非常感激。

以下是一个可重现的例子。

您可以坚持使用dplyr并使用rbind_list

library(MonetDB.R)
library(MonetDBLite)
library(dplyr)

mtcars1 <- mtcars[, -11] # create 2 slightly different versions of mtcars
mtcars2 <- mtcars[, -10]

## Reduce size
mtcars1 <- mtcars1[rep(seq(nrow(mtcars1)), 10000), ]
mtcars2 <- mtcars2[rep(seq(nrow(mtcars2)), 10000), ]

### Check size
nrow(mtcars1)
## [1] 320000

nrow(mtcars2)
## [1] 320000

###
dbdir <- tempdir() ## create a temporary directory
con <- dbConnect(MonetDB.R(), embedded = dbdir)

###
dbWriteTable(con, name = "mtcars1", value = mtcars1)
dbWriteTable(con, name = "mtcars2", value = mtcars2)

dbListTables(con)

###
ms <- src_monetdb(embedded = dbdir) # create a dplyr::tbl version tables
mt1 <- tbl(ms, "mtcars1") 
mt2 <- tbl(ms, "mtcars2")

### You need to add `n = -1` to `as.data.frame` to retrieve all rows
dbWriteTable(con, "mt_1_2", rbind_list(as.data.frame(mt1, n = -1),
                                       as.data.frame(mt2, n = -1)))

###
dbGetQuery(con, "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mt_1_2")
##       L1
## 1 640000

无法使用MonetDB和MonetDBLite
