Neal Richardson updated ARROW-8748:
-----------------------------------
Summary: [R] Add bindings to ConcatenateTables (was: [R] Implementing
methodes for combining arrow tabels using dplyr::bind_rows and dplyr::bind_cols)
> [R] Add bindings to ConcatenateTables

> Key: ARROW-8748
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8748
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: R
> Reporter: Dominic Dennenmoser
> Priority: Major
> Labels: features, performance
> Time Spent: 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> First at all, many thanks for your hard work! I was quite exited, when you
> guys implemented some basic function of the the {{dplyr}} package. Is there a
> why to combine tow or more arrow tables into one by rows or columns? At the
> moment my workaround looks like this:
> {code:r}
> dplyr::bind_rows(
> "a" = arrow.table.1 %>% dplyr::collect(),
> "b" = arrow.table.2 %>% dplyr::collect(),
> "c" = arrow.table.3 %>% dplyr::collect(),
> "d" = arrow.table.4 %>% dplyr::collect(),
> .id = "ID"
> ) %>%
> arrow::write_ipc_stream(sink = "file_name_combined_tables.arrow")
> {code}
> But this is actually not really a meaningful measure because of putting the
> data back as dataframes/tibbles into the r environment, which might lead to
> an exhaust of RAM space. Perhaps you might have a better workaround on hand.
> It would be great if you guys could implement the {{bind_rows}} and
> {{bind_cols}} methods provided by {{dplyr}}.
> {code:java}
> dplyr::bind_rows(
> "a" = arrow.table.1,
> "b" = arrow.table.2,
> "c" = arrow.table.3,
> "d" = arrow.table.4,
> .id = "ID"
> ) %>%
> arrow::write_ipc_stream(sink = "file_name_combined_tables.arrow"){code}
