Niranda Perera commented on ARROW-12710:
----------------------------------------
[~icook] I checked the postgres string_agg
(https://www.postgresqltutorial.com/postgresql-aggregate-functions/postgresql-string_agg-function/).
It seems to have an `order_by` option. Do you we need that part as well? If
not, AFAIU, this would be a straight-forward scalar agg kernel, and I can take
it up. :)

> Key: ARROW-12710
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-12710
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: C++
> Reporter: Ian Cook
> Priority: Major
>
> Like MySQL/Impala {{group_concat}} and PostgreSQL {{string_agg}}. Takes a
> string array and a separator (possibly optional?) and returns one scalar
> string (one per group in the case of group aggregation) representing all the
> string values in the array concatenated together, with the separator added
> between each pair of concatenated values.
> For example, in the case of no grouping and using separator {{"-"}}, this
> would take input:
> {code}
> Array<string>
> [
> "foo",
> "bar",
> "baz"
> ]
> {code}
> and return the following string scalar as output:
> {code}
> "foo-bar-baz"
> {code}
>
