I am writing an R application to run on Mac OS X (pentium chip) and connect to a PosygresSQL 8.1.3 database hosted on the same box. Could someone, please, recommend a library to go with for database connectivity?
RODBC. There is a MacOS X binary available, and the PostgreSQL 8.x ODBC driver works well (at least on Linux and Windows).
Is there a PgSQL R/DBMS to work with DBI?
No. BioC has Rdbi (an earlier version of DBI) and RdbiPgSQL but no MacOS X binaries.
