Frank McQuillan updated MADLIB-1001:
------------------------------------
Description:
Story
As a data scientist, I want to perform session reconstruction on my data set,
so that I can prepare for input into other algorithms like path functions, or
predictive analytics algorithms.
This is a follow on to
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-909
to add optional output controls.
Details
Proposed interface changes:
{code}
sessionize (
source_table,
output_table,
partition_expr,
order_expr,
time_stamp,
time_out,
output_cols -- new
create_view -- new
)
{code}
where
output_cols
TEXT. Controls which columns are output. If NULL, only the partition,
time stamp and the generated session ID columns are output. (The assumption is
that the partition columns together with the time stamp column will be
sufficient to perform a join with the input table.) If '*', all columns from
the source table are output in addition to the generated session ID. Otherwise
user can provide a specific list of columns of interest to output 'x, y, z, ...'
create_view
BOOLEAN default: TRUE. Determines whether to create a view or
materialize a table as output. If you only needed session info once, creating a
view could be significantly faster than materializing as a table.
