About duck_lk

Query LabKey Server tables directly from DuckDB with automatic local Parquet caching and staleness detection. Provides labkey_query() for one-shot access, labkey_sync() for explicit cache warming, and helper functions like labkey_cache_info() and labkey_cache_clear() for cache inspection and management. For best performance on repeated analysis, sync the table first and then query the synced table directly so DuckDB can read the cached Parquet natively.

For full documentation, see the GitHub repository.
