Access to the whole row in custom transformers

[marcoacierno]

I am building custom transformers to transform some of our data

The problem I am having is that inside the transformer I only have access to the column value, and nothing else, which makes it impossible for me to have transformers that change the value depending on something else.

One example I have is I want to anonymize users unless they are staff users. I can do it easily with emails (replibyte/transformers/email-transformer/src/main.rs) ) but I also want to keep their hashed password but since I only have access to the column value I have no way to know which password I am changing

Hi Marco, it's a valid use case and I am eager to provide an implementation to support it. I can't promise that I can take a look at it this weekend but I will try.

Hi @marcoacierno , I started working on your request. I keep you posted when the PR is created :)

I'm interested in this for concatenating fields - e.g. transform user id 12, first name 'john', last name 'smith', to user id 12, first name 'first12', last name 'last12'.
