A new renderer is currently being developed for Malloy; however, some functionality is not yet fully implemented. To revert back to the legacy renderer, use the model tag ## renderer_legacy.

You will need to revert back to the legacy renderer if you are using:

  • Export to HTML in VS Code

  • Drilling

  • Pivoting

  • Transpose

document
## renderer_legacy
source: airports is duckdb.table('../data/airports.parquet') extend {
  dimension: name is concat(code, ' - ', full_name)
  measure: airport_count is count()
}

An example table

run: airports -> {
  group_by: fac_type
  aggregate: 
    airport_count
    major_count is airport_count { where: major = 'Y' }
    average_elevation is elevation.avg()
  nest: top_states is {
    group_by: state
    aggregate:
      airport_count
      average_elevation is elevation.avg()
    limit: 3
