Summary: Implement a first(n) operator
Key: FLINK-970
URL:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-970 Project: Flink
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Timo Walther
Assignee: Timo Walther
Priority: Minor
It is only syntactic sugar, but I had many cases where I just needed the first element or the first 2 elements in a GroupReduce.
E.g. Instead of
{code:java}
.reduceGroup(new GroupReduceFunction<String, String>() {
@Override
public void reduce(Iterator<String> values, Collector<String> out) throws Exception {
out.collect(values.next());
}
})
{code}
{code:java}
.first()
{code}
