描述

I am building a data table editor for the end user. I want the end user to be able to pick the desired columns he wants to see in the table.

To do so, I want the user to select a cube first, then to pick from the related dimensions, as well as join dimensions, he wants to see as columns.

I can get the cubes and related dimensions with /v1/meta but it is missing the joins.

The solution /v1/meta endpoint to return joins as well for each cube.

With joins, we could aggregate dimensions for a desired Cube with the ones from its joined cubes.

研究方向: The /v1/meta endpoint currently returns cubes and their dimensions but not joins. The goal is to add joins to the response for each cube. The issue has 6 comments discussing the feature, and no PRs exist. To implement, locate the handler for /v1/meta (likely in server source, e.g., src/server/ or similar), extend the query to include joins from the cube schema, and format the response to include join details such as type, foreign key, and related cube. Follow existing patterns for dimensions to ensure consistency. Review the Cube documentation on joins for the schema structure.
