Support for HLL Functions
What happens?
Malloy should support HLL functions, like those available in BigQuery
A few things that make this a bit trickier than the typical aggregate function:
- The functions in BQ are weirdly named, e.g.,
HLL_COUNT.EXTRACT
andHLL_COUNT.INIT
. Can we just map these to Malloy-native function names likeHLL_COUNT_EXTRACT
andHLL_COUNT_INIT
? - These are not supported by Postgres and DuckDB, so we need a strategy to support functions in one dialect but not another.
To Reproduce
