Neal Richardson created ARROW-9856:
--------------------------------------
Summary: [R] Add bindings for string compute functions
Key: ARROW-9856
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9856
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: R
Reporter: Neal Richardson
See https://arrow.apache.org/docs/cpp/compute.html#string-predicates and below.
Since R's base string functions, as well as stringr/stringi, aren't generics
that we can define methods for, this will probably make most sense within the
context of a dplyr expression where we have more control over the evaluation.
This will require enabling utf8proc in the builds; there's already an
rtools-package for it.
