r - download csv from sftp server and use it as data frame -
i download csv file sftp server , use data frame.
i'm doing following:
library(rcurl) url<-c("sftp://data.ftp.net/data.csv") x <-geturl(url, userpwd="<username>:<passwd>") writelines(x, con="data.csv")) dataframe <- read.csv("data.csv")
the problem when using geturl takes long read file, e.g. ,about 12+ mins read 38~mb file, when take seconds download files in other ftp clients such filezilla. drastic difference when considering case of downloading multiple files.
is there more efficient/faster way this?
