Use the procedure below to add and configure a tAggregateRow component to aggregate the scores.

Procedure

  1. Next to the tUnite component, add a new component, tAggregateRow.
    addComponent {
    	setComponentDefinition {
    		TYPE: "tAggregateRow",
    		NAME: "tAggregateRow_1",
    		POSITION: 512, 192
    	}
    
    }
  2. Next to the setComponentDefinition {} of tAggregateRow, define the component properties using the setSettings {} function.

    In this example, the tAggregateRow component, labelled aggregate, will perform sum, avg, max, and min calculations to get the total, average, highest, and lowest scores of each subject.

    	setSettings {
    		GROUPBYS {
    			OUTPUT_COLUMN : "subject",
    			INPUT_COLUMN : "subject"
    		},
    		OPERATIONS {
    			OUTPUT_COLUMN : "sum",
    			FUNCTION : "sum",
    			INPUT_COLUMN : "score",
    			OUTPUT_COLUMN : "average",
    			FUNCTION : "avg",
    			INPUT_COLUMN : "score",
    			OUTPUT_COLUMN : "max",
    			FUNCTION : "max",
    			INPUT_COLUMN : "score",
    			OUTPUT_COLUMN : "min",
    			FUNCTION : "min",
    			INPUT_COLUMN : "score"
    		},
    		LABEL : "aggregate"
    	}
  3. Next to the setSettings {}, enter the addSchema {} function to define the output structure of the component.

    In this example, the tAggregateRow component will output five columns:

    • subject, type String
    • sum, for the total score of each subject, type Double
    • average, for the average score of each subject, type Double
    • max, for the highest score of each subject, type Double
    • min, for the lowest score of each subject, type Double
    	addSchema {
    		NAME: "tAggregateRow_1",
    		CONNECTOR: "FLOW"
    		addColumn {
    			NAME: "subject",
    			TYPE: "id_String"
    		}
    		addColumn {
    			NAME: "sum",
    			TYPE: "id_Double",
    			PRECISION: 2
    		}
    		addColumn {
    			NAME: "average",
    			TYPE: "id_Double",
    			PRECISION: 2
    		}
    		addColumn {
    			NAME: "max",
    			TYPE: "id_Double",
    			PRECISION: 2
    		}
    		addColumn {
    			NAME: "min",
    			TYPE: "id_Double",
    			PRECISION: 2
    		}
    	}
