HTTP GET Arrow Data: Simple R Client Example

This directory contains a minimal example of an HTTP client implemented in R. The client:

1. Sends an HTTP GET request to a server.
2. Receives an HTTP 200 response from the server, with the response body containing an Arrow IPC stream of record batches.
3. Creates an Arrow table from the record batches

To run this example, first start one of the server examples in the parent directory, then:

R -e 'install.packages(c("httr", "arrow", "tictoc"), repos="https://cloud.r-project.org")'
R -f client.R -s
