Another @posit.co Positron blog post! To make it easier to work with some huge data in one of my projects, I've loaded it into @duckdb.org. The Connections Pane makes it really easy and convenient to connect to and explore databases with #rstats. Here's how: www.andrewheiss.com/blog/2025/07...
Screenshot of a connection to a DuckDB database, and a screenshot of the columns of one of the tables in that database Table of contents for the post: - DuckDB, {DBI}, and the difficulty of discerning data in a database - DuckDB, {connections}, and the magical Connections Pane - Bonus: Better support for DuckDB in the Connections Pane - The whole game R code for connecting to a database, adding stuff to it, extracting it, and plotting it library(tidyverse) # Use nicer DuckDB Connections Pane features options("duckdb.enable_rstudio_connection_pane" = TRUE) # Connect to an in-memory database, just for illustration con <- connections::connection_open(duckdb::duckdb(), ":memory:") # Add stuff to it copy_to( con, gapminder::gapminder, name = "gapminder", overwrite = TRUE, temporary = FALSE ) # Get stuff out of it gapminder_2007 <- tbl(con, I("gapminder")) |> filter(year == 2007) |> collect() # All done connections::connection_close(con) # Make a pretty plot, just for fun ggplot(gapminder_2007, aes(x = gdpPercap, y = lifeExp)) + geom_point(aes(color = continent)) + scale_x_log10(labels = scales::label_dollar(accuracy = 1)) + scale_color_brewer(palette = "Set1") + labs( x = "GDP per capita", y = "Life expectancy", color = NULL, title = "This data came from a DuckDB database!" ) + theme_minimal(base_family = "Roboto Condensed") Scatterplot showing global health and wealth from gapminder in 2007
