Hi! 
Following (simplified) Use Case:
I have a page to create all dates between from and to as a row in a table:
These are the calculations:
From and to is converted to a unix stamp:
And the count of days is calculated this way:
At the end, the output is a list of dates:
It’s not about this specific use-case.
Coda allows to write functional, reactive coda with immediate feedback.
It’d be awesome - if this page that I have - if I could use the same functionality in another place, as a function with this signature:
function DatesBetween(from: Date, to: Date): List<Date> {
// ... coda page
}
Another good example are more complex FormulaMaps.
There it get’s messy pretty easily, when you require complex logic per iteration, e.g. introducing local constants, nested loops, …
This is already possible with packs But the comfort barrier to code, build and consume a new pack, compared to write where the cursor already blinks is always a little higher.
A possible example implementation could look like this:
Where all inputs (select, text, … with their according type / generic / metadata) within the blue box are inputs for the function, and all constants are the outputs are exposed via a function.
What do you think?
Thanks!
