(I am still completely not seeing a problem here.)

The plan is to mostly use Upsert in the future since we can do some
optimizations with it that we can't do with an insert.
We should also support deletes as well and probably allow a mix of the
three operations within the same feed. This is a work in progress right now
but before I go far, I am stabilizing some other parts of the feeds.

Abdullah,
OK, now I see what problems it will cause.
Kinda related question: could the feed implement “upsert” semantics, that
you’ve been working on, instead of “insert” semantics?

I think that we probably should restrict feed applied functions somehow

don't.
As for the case you present, I would imagine that it could be allowed
theoretically but I think everyone sees why it should be disallowed.
One thing to keep in mind is that we introduce a materialize if the
dataset
was part of an insert pipeline. Now think about how this would work with
a
continuous feed. One choice would be that the feed will materialize all
records to be inserted and once the feed stops, it would start inserting
them but I still think we should not allow it.
My 2c,
Any opposing argument?
Amoudi, Abdullah.

Hi All,
As a part of feed ingestion we do allow preprocessing incoming data with
AQL UDFs.
I was wondering if we somehow restrict the kind of UDFs that could be
used? Do we allow joins in these UDFs? Especially joins with the same
dataset, which is used for intake. Ex:
create type TweetType as open {
id: string,
username : string,
location : string,
text : string,
timestamp : string
}
create dataset Tweets(TweetType)
primary key id;
create function feed_processor($x) {
for $y in dataset Tweets
// self-join with Tweets dataset on some predicate($x, $y)
return $y
}
create feed TweetFeed
apply function feed_processor;
The query above fails in runtime, but I was wondering if that
theoretically could work at all.
Best regards,
