For example, I have a list of items and each item has a name. I want to build a single string that contains a comma-separated list of all the names. In most programming languages, I would loop over the items and append to a value outside the list/array. But, I can’t figure out any combination of Yahoo! Pipes modules to do it. Maybe I’m missing something obvious, but I also find nothing relevant from Google.
How do I append loop item values to a single value outside the loop?
Or how can I return a single value from a loop that’s built with values from every item?
Or what is the correct method to accomplish this in Pipes if it’s neither of those?
The best method I’ve come up with based on help from the Yahoo! group, is to use an Item Builder (item.string = default) –> Loop ( assign all to item.string ). Using another pipe inside the Loop to provide the values to concatenate was also very helpful.
