A simple example

To get started execute the following commands:

# 0.  Load libraries
library(RSQL)

# 1.  RSQL
db.name <- getMtcarsdbPath()
rsql <- createRSQL(drv = RSQLite::SQLite(), dbname = db.name)
query_sql <- rsql$gen_select(
    select_fields = c("*"),
    table = "mtcars")

query_sql <- rsql$gen_select(
    select_fields = c("mpg", "cyl", "disp", "hp", "drat", "wt", "qsec", "vs", "am"),
    table = "mtcars",
