Read a Stata (.dta) File from MinIO

Downloads a Stata .dta file stored in a MinIO bucket and reads it into memory as a base data.frame. Internally, the function retrieves the object contents as raw bytes using minio_get_object, writes them to a temporary file, and then delegates parsing to read_dta.

Usage

minio_get_dta(bucket, object, ...)

Arguments

bucket

Character. Name of the MinIO bucket.

object

Character. Object key (path) of the .dta file within the bucket.

...

Additional arguments passed to haven::read_dta().

Value

A base data.frame containing the contents of the Stata file.

Details

Additional arguments are forwarded to haven::read_dta(), allowing control over encoding, labelled values, user-defined missing values, and other Stata-specific parsing options.

Regardless of the return type produced by haven::read_dta() (for example, a tibble), the result is always coerced to a base data.frame for consistency with other minio_get_* readers.
