perspective

The main API module for Perspective.


perspective~view

Kind: inner class of perspective


new view()

A View object represents a specific transform (configuration or pivot, filter, sort, etc) configuration on an underlying table. A View receives all updates from the table from which it is derived, and can be serialized to JSON or trigger a callback when it is updated. View objects are immutable, and will remain in memory and actively process updates until its delete method is called.

Note This constructor is not public - Views are created by invoking the view method.

Example

// Returns a new View, pivoted in the row space by the "name" column.
table.view({row_pivots: ["name"]});

view.get_config() ⇒ object

A copy of the config object passed to the table#view method which created this view.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: object - Shared the same key/values properties as view


view.delete()

Delete this view and clean up all resources associated with it. View objects do not stop consuming resources or processing updates when they are garbage collected - you must call this method to reclaim these.

Kind: instance method of view


view.schema() ⇒ Promise.<Object>

The schema of this view. A schema is an Object, the keys of which are the columns of this view, and the values are their string type names. If this view is aggregated, theses will be the aggregated types; otherwise these types will be the same as the columns in the underlying table

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<Object> - A Promise of this view's schema.


view.to_columns([options]) ⇒ Promise.<Array>

Serializes this view to JSON data in a column-oriented format.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<Array> - A Promise resolving to An array of Objects representing the rows of this view. If this view had a "row_pivots" config parameter supplied when constructed, each row Object will have a "ROW_PATH" key, whose value specifies this row's aggregated path. If this view had a "column_pivots" config parameter supplied, the keys of this object will be comma-prepended with their comma-separated column paths.
Params

  • [options] Object - An optional configuration object.
    • .start_row number - The starting row index from which to serialize.
    • .end_row number - The ending row index from which to serialize.
    • .start_col number - The starting column index from which to serialize.
    • .end_col number - The ending column index from which to serialize.

view.to_json([options]) ⇒ Promise.<Array>

Serializes this view to JSON data in a row-oriented format.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<Array> - A Promise resolving to An array of Objects representing the rows of this view. If this view had a "row_pivots" config parameter supplied when constructed, each row Object will have a "ROW_PATH" key, whose value specifies this row's aggregated path. If this view had a "column_pivots" config parameter supplied, the keys of this object will be comma-prepended with their comma-separated column paths.
Params

  • [options] Object - An optional configuration object.
    • .start_row number - The starting row index from which to serialize.
    • .end_row number - The ending row index from which to serialize.
    • .start_col number - The starting column index from which to serialize.
    • .end_col number - The ending column index from which to serialize.

view.to_csv([options]) ⇒ Promise.<string>

Serializes this view to CSV data in a standard format.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<string> - A Promise resolving to a string in CSV format representing the rows of this view. If this view had a "row_pivots" config parameter supplied when constructed, each row will have prepended those values specified by this row's aggregated path. If this view had a "column_pivots" config parameter supplied, the keys of this object will be comma-prepended with their comma-separated column paths.
Params

  • [options] Object - An optional configuration object.
    • .start_row number - The starting row index from which to serialize.
    • .end_row number - The ending row index from which to serialize.
    • .start_col number - The starting column index from which to serialize.
    • .end_col number - The ending column index from which to serialize.
    • .config Object - A config object for the Papaparse https://www.papaparse.com/docs#json-to-csv config object.

view.col_to_js_typed_array(column_name) ⇒ Promise.<TypedArray>

Serializes a view column into a TypedArray.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<TypedArray> - A promise resolving to a TypedArray representing the data of the column as retrieved from the view - all pivots, aggregates, sorts, and filters have been applied onto the values inside the TypedArray. The TypedArray will be constructed based on data type - integers will resolve to Int8Array, Int16Array, or Int32Array. Floats resolve to Float32Array or Float64Array. If the column cannot be found, or is not of an integer/float type, the Promise returns undefined.
Params

  • column_name string - The name of the column to serialize.

view.to_arrow([options]) ⇒ Promise.<TypedArray>

Serializes a view to arrow.

Kind: instance method of view
Returns: Promise.<TypedArray> - A Table in the Apache Arrow format containing data from the view.

Params

  • callback function - A callback function invoked on update. The parameter to this callback shares a structure with the return type of to_json.

perspective~table

Kind: inner class of perspective


new table()

A Table object is the basic data container in Perspective. Tables are typed - they have an immutable set of column names, and a known type for each.

Note This constructor is not public - Tables are created by invoking the table factory method, either on the perspective module object, or an a module:perspective~worker instance.


table.clear()

Remove all rows in this table while preserving the schema and construction options.

Kind: instance method of table


table.replace()

Replace all rows in this table the input data.

Kind: instance method of table


table.delete()

Delete this table and clean up all resources associated with it. Table objects do not stop consuming resources or processing updates when they are garbage collected - you must call this method to reclaim these.

Kind: instance method of table


table.on_delete(callback)

Register a callback with this table. Whenever the view is deleted, this callback will be invoked.

Kind: instance method of table
Params

  • callback function - A callback function invoked on update. The parameter to this callback shares a structure with the return type of module:perspective~table#to_json.

table.size() ⇒ Promise.<number>

The number of accumulated rows in this table. This is affected by the "index" configuration parameter supplied to this view's contructor - as rows will be overwritten when they share an idnex column.

Kind: instance method of table
Returns: Promise.<number> - The number of accumulated rows.


table.schema(computed) ⇒ Promise.<Object>

The schema of this table. A schema is an Object whose keys are the columns of this table, and whose values are their string type names.

Kind: instance method of table
Returns: Promise.<Object> - A Promise of this table's schema.
Params

  • computed boolean - Should computed columns be included? (default false)

table.computed_schema() ⇒ Promise.<Object>

The computed schema of this table. Returns a schema of only computed columns added by the user, the keys of which are computed columns and the values an Object containing the associated column_name, column_type, and computation.

Kind: instance method of table
Returns: Promise.<Object> - A Promise of this table's computed schema.


table.is_valid_filter([filter]) ⇒ boolean

Determines whether a given filter is valid.

Kind: instance method of table
Returns: boolean - Whether the filter is valid
Params

  • [filter] Array.<string> - A filter configuration array to test

table.view([config]) ⇒ view

Create a new view from this table with a specified configuration.

    • [.aggregates] Object - An object, the keys of which are column names, and their respective values ar ethe aggregates calculations to use when this view has row_pivots. A column provided to config.columns without an aggregate in this object, will use the default aggregate calculation for its type.
    • [.filter] Array.<Array.<string>> - An Array of Filter configurations to apply. A filter configuration is an array of 3 elements: A column name, a supported filter comparison string (e.g. '===', '>'), and a value to compare.
    • [.sort] Array.<string> - An Array of Sort configurations to apply. A sort configuration is an array of 2 elements: A column name, and a sort direction, which are: "none", "asc", "desc", "col asc", "col desc", "asc abs", "desc abs", "col asc abs", "col desc abs".

Example

If the column is computed, the computed property is an Object containing:

  • Array input_columns
  • String input_type
  • Object computation.

Otherwise, computed is undefined.

Kind: instance method of table
Returns: Array.<object> - An array of Objects containing metadata for each column.
