I'm running a postgreSQL query based on an automated list of ID's stored in an R list. I'm trying to determine how to include that R list in my query so I don't have to hard-code the ID's each time I run my query.
For example, I have a script that produces the list
id <- c("001","002","003")
and my query looks something like this:
SELECT *
FROM my_query
WHERE my_query.id_col IN ('001', '002', '003')
which I run using Rpostgres:
library(Rpostgres)
snappConnection <- DBI::dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres(),
host = "host",
dbname = "dbname",
user = "user",
password = "pword",
port = 0000)
core.data <- dbGetQuery(conn = snappConnection,statement = SELECT * FROM my_query WHERE my_query.id_col IN ('001', '002', '003'))
Is there a way to reference my "id" list from R in my query so that when "id" updates to new values, the query also updates to those new values?
CodePudding user response:
glue_sql
from glue package should work:
query <- glue::glue_sql("
SELECT *
FROM my_query
WHERE my_query.id_col IN ({id*})
", .con = snappConnection)
core.data <- dbGetQuery(conn = snappConnection, statement = query)
