[ZEPPELIN-2217] AdvancedTransformation for Visualization
### What is this PR for?
`AdvancedTransformation` has more detailed options while providing existing
features of `PivotTransformation` and `ColumnselectorTransformation` which
Zeppelin already has

Here are some features which advanced-transformation can provide.
1. **(screenshot)** multiple sub charts
2. **(screenshot)** parameter widgets: `input`, `checkbox`, `option`,
`textarea`
3. **(screenshot)** expand/fold axis and parameter panels
4. **(screenshot)** clear axis and parameter panels
5. **(screenshot)** remove duplicated columns in an axis
6. **(screenshot)** limit column count in an axis
7. configurable char axes: `valueType`, `axisType`, `description`, ...
8. configurable chart parameters
9. lazy transformation
10. parsing parameters automatically based on their type: `int`, `float`,
`string`, `JSON`
11. multiple transformation methods
12. re-initialize whole configuration based on spec hash.
13. **(screenshot)** shared axis
#### API Details: Spec
`AdvancedTransformation` requires `spec` which includes axis and parameter
details for charts.
- Let's create 2 sub-charts called `simple-line` and `step-line`.
- Each sub chart can have different `axis` and `parameter` depending on
their requirements.
```js
constructor(targetEl, config) {
super(targetEl, config)
const spec = {
charts: {
'simple-line': {
sharedAxis: true, /** set if you want to share axes between sub
charts, default is `false` */
axis: {
'xAxis': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'key', },
'yAxis': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'aggregator'},
'category': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'group', },
},
parameter: {
'xAxisUnit': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '',
description: 'unit of xAxis', },
'yAxisUnit': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '',
description: 'unit of yAxis', },
'dashLength': { valueType: 'int', defaultValue: 0, description:
'the length of dash', },
},
},
'step-line': {
axis: {
'xAxis': { dimension: 'single', axisType: 'unique', },
'yAxis': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'value', },
},
parameter: {
'xAxisUnit': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '',
description: 'unit of xAxis', },
'yAxisUnit': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '',
description: 'unit of yAxis', },
'noStepRisers': { valueType: 'boolean', defaultValue: false,
description: 'no risers in step line', widget: 'checkbox', },
},
},
}
this.transformation = new AdvancedTransformation(config, spec)
}
```
#### API Details: Axis Spec
| Field Name | Available Values (type) | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
|`dimension` | `single` | Axis can contains only 1 column |
|`dimension` | `multiple` | Axis can contains multiple columns |
|`axisType` | `key` | Column(s) in this axis will be used as `key` like in
`PivotTransformation`. These columns will be served in `column.key` |
|`axisType` | `aggregator` | Column(s) in this axis will be used as `value`
like in `PivotTransformation`. These columns will be served in
`column.aggregator` |
|`axisType` | `group` | Column(s) in this axis will be used as `group` like
in `PivotTransformation`. These columns will be served in `column.group` |
|`axisType` | (string) | Any string value can be used here. These columns
will be served in `column.custom` |
|`maxAxisCount` | (int) | The maximum column count that this axis can
contains. (unlimited if `undefined`) |
|`valueType` | (string) | Describe the value type just for annotation |
Here is an example.
```js
axis: {
'xAxis': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'key', },
'yAxis': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'aggregator'},
'category': { dimension: 'multiple', axisType: 'group',
maxAxisCount: 2, valueType: 'string', },
},
```
#### API Details: Parameter Spec
| Field Name | Available Values (type) | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
|`valueType` | `string` | Parameter which has string value |
|`valueType` | `int` | Parameter which has int value |
|`valueType` | `float` | Parameter which has float value |
|`valueType` | `boolean` | Parameter which has boolean value used with
`checkbox` widget usually |
|`valueType` | `JSON` | Parameter which has JSON value used with `textarea`
widget usually. `defaultValue` should be `""` (empty string). This
||`defaultValue` | (any) | Default value of this parameter. `JSON` type should
have `""` (empty string) |
|`description` | (string) | Description of this parameter. This value will
be parsed as HTML for pretty output |
|`widget` | `input` | Use
[input](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input) widget.
This is the default widget (if `widget` is undefined)|
|`widget` | `checkbox` | Use
[checkbox](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/checkbox)
widget. |
|`widget` | `textarea` | Use
[textarea](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/textarea)
widget. |
|`widget` | `option` | Use [select +
option](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/select)
widget. This parameter should have `optionValues` field as well. |
|`optionValues` | (Array<string>) | Available option values used with the
`option` widget |
Here is an example.
```js
parameter: {
// string type, input widget
'xAxisUnit': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '', description: 'unit
of xAxis', },
// boolean type, checkbox widget
'inverted': { widget: 'checkbox', valueType: 'boolean', defaultValue:
false, description: 'invert x and y axes', },
// string type, option widget with `optionValues`
'graphType': { widget: 'option', valueType: 'string', defaultValue:
'line', description: 'graph type', optionValues: [ 'line', 'smoothedLine',
'step', ], },
// HTML in `description`
'dateFormat': { valueType: 'string', defaultValue: '', description:
'format of date (<a
href="https://docs.amcharts.com/3/javascriptcharts/AmGraph#dateFormat">doc</a>)
(e.g YYYY-MM-DD)', },
// JSON type, textarea widget
'yAxisGuides': { widget: 'textarea', valueType: 'JSON', defaultValue: '',
description: 'guides of yAxis ', },
```
#### API Details: Transformer Spec
`AdvancedTransformation` supports 3 transformation methods. The return
value will depend on the transformation method type.
```js
const spec = {
charts: {
'simple': {
/** default value of `transform.method` is the flatten cube. */
axis: { ... },
parameter: { ... }
},
'cube-group': {
transform: { method: 'cube', },
axis: { ... },
parameter: { ... },
}
'no-group': {
transform: { method: 'raw', },
axis: { ... },
parameter: { ... },
}
```
| Field Name | Available Values (type) | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
|`method` | `object` | designed for [amcharts:
serial](https://www.amcharts.com/demos/date-based-data/) |
|`method` | `array` | designed for [highcharts:
column](http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/column-basic/)
|
|`method` | `drill-down` | designed for [highcharts:
drill-down](http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/column-drilldown/)
|
|`method` | `raw` | will return the original `tableData.rows` |
Whatever you specified as `transform.method`, the `transformer` value will
be always function for lazy computation.
```js
// advanced-transformation.util#getTransformer
if (transformSpec.method === 'raw') {
transformer = () => { return rows; }
} else if (transformSpec.method === 'array') {
transformer = () => {
...
return { ... }
}
}
```
#### Feature Details: Automatic parameter parsing
Advanced transformation will parse parameter values automatically based on
their type: `int`, `float`, `string`, `JSON`
- See also `advanced-transformation-util.js#parseParameter`
#### Feature Details: re-initialize the whole configuration based on spec
hash
```js
// advanced-transformation-util#initializeConfig
const currentVersion = JSON.stringify(spec)
if (!config.spec || !config.spec.version || config.spec.version !==
currentVersion) {
spec.version = currentVersion
// reset config...
}
```
#### Feature Details: Shared Axes
If you set `sharedAxis` to `true` in chart specification, then these charts
will share their axes. (default is `false`)
```js
const spec = {
charts: {
'column': {
transform: { method: 'array', },
sharedAxis: true,
axis: { ... },
parameter: { ... },
},
'stacked': {
transform: { method: 'array', },
sharedAxis: true,
axis: { ... }
parameter: { ... },
},
```

#### API Details: Usage in Visualization#render()
Let's assume that we want to create 2 sub-charts called `basic` and
`no-group`.
- https://github.com/1ambda/zeppelin-ultimate-line-chart (an practical
example)
```js
drawBasicChart(parameter, column, transformer) {
const { ... } = transformer()
}
drawNoGroupChart(parameter, column, transformer) {
const { ... } = transformer()
}
render(data) {
const { chart, parameter, column, transformer, } = data
if (chart === 'basic') {
this.drawBasicChart(parameter, column, transformer)
} else if (chart === 'no-group') {
this.drawNoGroupChart(parameter, column, transformer)
}
}
```
