newBioassayDB {bioassayR} | R Documentation

## Create a new bioassayR database

### Description

This function creates a new bioassayR database at the specified filesystem location, and returns a `BioassayDB` object connected to the new database.

### Usage

    newBioassayDB(databasePath, writeable = TRUE, indexed = FALSE)

### Arguments

`databasePath` | Full path to the database file to be created.
`writeable` | logical. Should the database allow data to be modified and written to?
`indexed` | logical. Should a performance enhancing index be created? The default is false, as typically an index is added only after initial data is loaded. Data loading is much slower into an already indexed database.
