Trying to create R UDF in Vertica - r

Question

So I have a long function that I run in R every month. My goal is to create a Vertica UDF using vertica's ability to run functions written in R. My hope is that this can then be automated from my companies' data warehouse. I've looked all over the internet for an example that resembles mine but cannot find one. My function takes two dataframes as input and one dataframe as output. Below is the function and factory function code.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben
