DateSlicerHierarchy

The DateSlicer hierarchy is part of the date shifting feature. This hierarchy is slicing. It is used to populate a level with a set of possible target date for the UnfilteredDateShiftPostProcessor.

import com.activeviam.accelerator.common.hierarchy.DateSlicerHierarchy;

// ....

hierarchyBuilder.toDimension(DATES_DIMENSION,
        DateSlicerHierarchy.hierarchy(DATE_DTD_HIERARCHY)
            .withLevel(DATE_DTD_HIERARCHY)
            .withDateField(baseStore, FieldPath.of(AS_OF_DATE))
            .withSpecificDates("Yesterday=DAY-1,Tomorrow=DAY+1,End Of Month=EOM-1,End Of Quarter=EOQ-1,End Of Year=EOY-1"));

There are the methods exposed to set up the hierarchy:

Method	Parameters	Mandatory	Usage
withVisible	Boolean		Sets the visible flag to the hierarchy.
hidden			Hides the hierarchy, equivalent to `withVisible(false)`
withLevel	String	X	Specifies the name of the required level.
withType	int		The Copper type of the level (mandatory for a Copper usage), for instance `withType(Types.TYPE_STRING)`.
withComparator	IComparator		Sets the level comparator directly from a comparator object instance (the running hierarchy will create its own instance).
withComparator	IComparatorDescription		Sets the level comparator from a comparator description.
withComparator	String		Sets the level comparator from a comparator Plug-In Key.
withDateFieldFromSelection	String		Will add to the members the content of the provided field coming from the selection (this method is unsafe).
withDateField	String, FieldPath		Will add to the members the content of the field column of the specified store.
withSpecificDates	String		A list of specific date definition added to the members, with the format UserValue=TechnicalValue. The user value is displayed.
