Timo Walther created FLINK-3497: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add SQL scalar functions to Table API Key: FLINK-3497 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3497 Project: Flink Issue Type: New Feature Components: Table API Reporter: Timo Walther
In order to use the Table API as ETL tool and prepare for FLINK-2099, we need to add more scalar functions such as {{trim()}}, {{abs()}}, {{like()}}, etc. Calcite implements the most important functions. We can basically forward calls to Calcites built-in runtime functions. Some functions need special treatment because of Flink specifics. I would propose the following steps: - Implement TRIM, SUBSTRING as reference design - remaining string functions - math functions - Date/time functions - System functions - Case - Array - other Each step includes implementation, test and documentation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
