Examples

# For running the examples on systems without PostgreSQL connection:
run <- postgresHasDefault()
#> Could not initialise default postgres database. If postgres is running
#> check that the environment variables PGHOST, PGPORT, 
#> PGUSER, PGPASSWORD, and PGDATABASE, are defined and
#> point to your database.

library(DBI)
if (run) con <- dbConnect(RPostgres::Postgres())

x <- c("a", "b c", "d'e", "\\f")
if (run) dbQuoteString(con, x)
if (run) dbQuoteIdentifier(con, x)
if (run) dbDisconnect(con)
