transform

A transform step can be used to merge, filter, or reformat data using HCL functions. While you can transform the data "inline", it is often useful to:

• transform the data once and use the transformed data in multiple places
• transform the data through multiple distinct steps to makes it easier to troubleshoot / maintain
• perform conditional logic as part of the data transformation

pipeline "transform_example" {

  step "http" "whos_in_space" {
    url    = "http://api.open-notify.org/astros"
    method = "get"
  }

  step "transform" "get_spacecraft" {
    value = distinct(step.http.whos_in_space.response_body.people[*].craft)
  }

  step "transform" "get_astros" {
    value = distinct(step.http.whos_in_space.response_body.people[*].name)
  }

  output "astronauts" {
    value = step.transform.get_astros.value
  }
  output "spacecraft" {
    value = step.transform.get_spacecraft.value
  }
  
}

Arguments

This step also supports the common step arguments and attributes.
