             Summary: New macro - samply by keys
                 Key: DATAFU-127
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DATAFU-127
             Project: DataFu
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Eyal Allweil
            Assignee: Eyal Allweil


Two macros that return a sample of a larger table based on a list of keys, with the schema of the larger table. One of the macros filters by dates, the other doesn't.

If there are multiple rows with a key that appears in the key list, all of them will be returned (no deduplication is done). The results are returned ordered by the key field in a single file.

The implementation uses a replicated join for efficiency, but this means the key list shouldn't be too large as to not fit in memory.

The first macro's definition looks as follows:

DEFINE sample_by_keys(table, sample_set, join_key_table, join_key_sample) returns out {

- table_name 				- table name to sample
- sample_set 				- a set of keys
- join_key_table 			- join column name in the table
- join_key_sample 			- join column name in the sample
