Aggregator

abstract class Aggregator[-IN, BUF, OUT] extends Serializable

:: Experimental :: A base class for user-defined aggregations, which can be used in Dataset operations to take all of the elements of a group and reduce them to a single value.

For example, the following aggregator extracts an int from a specific class and adds them up:

case class Data(i: Int)

val customSummer =  new Aggregator[Data, Int, Int] {
  def zero: Int = 0
  def reduce(b: Int, a: Data): Int = b + a.i
  def merge(b1: Int, b2: Int): Int = b1 + b2
  def finish(r: Int): Int = r
}.toColumn()

val ds: Dataset[Data] = ...
val aggregated = ds.select(customSummer)

Based loosely on Aggregator from Algebird: https://github.com/twitter/algebird

IN

The input type for the aggregation.

BUF

The type of the intermediate value of the reduction.

OUT

The type of the final output result.
