A formula transformation tool
simonaubertbd opened this issue · comments
Hello,
I would like to have a formula tool with these features (looks very classic):
-modify an existing column or create a new one
-if a new one, ability to set the type (with a dropdown menu as exemple)
-autocompletion
-preview
-ability to disable a formula (not usual but when developing, it's pretty cool)
-language should be python of course
For reference, the Alteryx formula
Best regards,
Simon
Hi Simon,
That's a good idea. I do believe this can be done with custom code component but I see why it would help to have one and probably easier for people less comfortable with Python. I probably can have an experimental version of this pretty quick!
Thanks for the suggestion!!
Introduced the formula component in 0.5.7:
Multiple modes:
Python Expression
Python Function
Lambda Expression
Haven't done the documentation yet, but will do asap
Keeping open because still need to be done:
-color highlighting
- auto completion
@tgourdel I was thinking : wouldn't it be smarter if I split this issue in two and I create two other ones for color highlighting or autocompletion? That would mean we could close this one.
Sure, that's a good idea. Especially because the highlighting and auto-complete are part of a larger work for all the code inputs (python code, sql inputs).
@tgourdel Done. I think you can close this issue now.
