Hi Martin,
you can get the start and end time of a window from the TimeWindow object.
The following Scala code snippet shows how to access the window end time
(start time is equivalent):
.timeWindow(Time.minutes(5))
.trigger(new EarlyCountTrigger(earlyCountThreshold))
.apply { (
key: Int,
window: TimeWindow,
vals: Iterable[(Int, Short)],
out: Collector[(Int, Long, Int)]) =>
out.collect( ( key, window.getEnd, vals.map( _._2 ).sum ) )
}
Cheers, Fabian
