Glimpse the status of a DuckDB extension — ddbs_extension

Retrieves the row from DuckDB's duckdb_extensions() catalog for a given extension (the spatial extension by default) and prints a transposed glimpse of it: whether it is installed and loaded, its version, install path, description, and so on.

Usage

ddbs_extension_info(conn = NULL, extension = "spatial")

Arguments

conn: A connection object to a DuckDB database. If NULL, the function runs on a temporary DuckDB database.
extension: name of the extension to inspect, default is "spatial"

Value

A one-row tibble with the extension's metadata (invisibly). Called mainly for the glimpse printed as a side effect.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
## load package
library(duckspatial)

# inspect the spatial extension on the default connection
ddbs_extension_info()

# or pass an explicit connection
conn <- ddbs_create_conn()
ddbs_extension_info(conn)
ddbs_stop_conn(conn)
} # }
