Sending email from Apache Beam

[Marco Mistroni <mm...@gmail.com>]

HI all
  i am planning to end my Apache Beam workflow by sending an email..
so basically i have N elements that gets processed and transformed, and at
the end i would like to send an email whose content are the elements i have
processed.
Could anyone advise on how to do it? and if it is a  malpractice?
At the moment i am stuck at the point where i want to combine all the
elements in one big text, and i need a Transform that given N element it
will just return One big text, similar to a python's reduce function

Is there such a Transform in Beam?

thanks
 Marco

The easiest way is to do something like this (assuming you are using
Python):

CombineGlobally(lambda elements: ','.join(elements))

For more info on Combines, check out the programming guide:
