Flag a character vector as SQL identifiers

Description

ident() takes strings and turns them as database identifiers (e.g. table or column names) quoting them using the identifer rules for your database. ident_q() does the same, but assumes the names have already been quoted, preventing them from being quoted again.

These are generally for internal use only; if you need to supply an table name that is qualified with schema or catalog, or has already been quoted for some other reason, use I().

Usage

ident(...)

Arguments

Examples

# Identifiers are escaped with "
