Map

The Map function takes key:value pairs as input and transforms them into different key:value pairs when they meet defined criteria.

The output of the Map function is the new set of key:value pairs.

This mapping forwards the same key:value if the key meets the defined pattern and if the value is a string in the list.

{
  "id": "playersLike",
  "source": "viewers",
  "where": {
    "key": ["players", "<playerId>", "reaction"],
    "type": "string",
    "name": "<reaction>"
    "$in": ["like", "love", "laugh", "surprised", "sad", "mad"]
  },
  "key": ["players", "<playerId>", "reaction"],
  "value": "<reaction>"
}

Map schema

id

A unique string that refers to the map. Used for modifying the map after its creation.

source

A string that indicates where the event originated. (Only “viewers” is currently supported.)

where

A schema defining the conditions that trigger producing a new key:value pair. See Where schema for more information.

key

An array of strings representing the new key. Each string can be:

• Alphanumeric string: A plain literal value.
• <anyText>: A named value taken from the input key.

value

Specifies what value to assign the key to. Values produced by the map can be:

• <anyText>: A named value taken from the input key.

  • String: A plain literal string value.
  • Number: Any numeric value.

• Boolean: A boolean value (true or false).
