[jira] [Commented] (CRUNCH-208) Add a mapValues convenience function to PTable and PGroupedTable

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-208?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13661822#comment-13661822 ] 

Gabriel Reid commented on CRUNCH-208:
-------------------------------------

+1. That's definitely a pattern that seems to come up very regularly.

I guess that's what o.a.c.fn.MapValues is intended for, but I never end up using it because feels wrong to extend from MapValuesFn instead of just from MapFn. What I usually end up doing is using a MapValuesFn that wraps a MapFn to get this same functionality, but with the addition of this method maybe we could even deprecate MapValuesFn.

> Working on Cloudera ML, I find myself writing lots of functions where I'm only modifying the values of a PTable or PGroupedTable and just passing along the keys as they are, so I wrote some functions to help me implement that pattern more easily.
