Native Python mode supports transformations on singleton dictionaries by setting `singleton=True`. This allows you to
write transformation functions that operate on a single row at a time, making the code more intuitive and aligning with
how data scientists typically think about data transformations.

## Aggregations

On Demand Feature Views support aggregations that compute aggregate statistics over groups of rows. When using aggregations, data is grouped by entity columns (e.g., `driver_id`) and aggregated before being passed to the transformation function.

**Important**: Aggregations and transformations are mutually exclusive. When aggregations are specified, they replace the transformation function.

### Usage

```python
from feast import Aggregation
from datetime import timedelta

@on_demand_feature_view(
sources=[driver_hourly_stats_view],
schema=[
Field(name="total_trips", dtype=Int64),
Field(name="avg_rating", dtype=Float64),
],
aggregations=[
Aggregation(column="trips", function="sum"),
Aggregation(column="rating", function="mean"),
],
)
def driver_aggregated_stats(inputs):
# No transformation function needed when using aggregations
pass
```

Aggregated columns are automatically named using the pattern `{function}_{column}` (e.g., `sum_trips`, `mean_rating`).

## Example
See [https://github.com/feast-dev/on-demand-feature-views-demo](https://github.com/feast-dev/on-demand-feature-views-demo) for an example on how to use on demand feature views.

Currently if this is a python input, we don't have aggregation function to use OOTD, so it use the pandas Dataframe backend to aggregate. I think in long term we need to create a real time compute engine, where we support python native compute operations such as aggregations, filtering, joining etc.

Sorry, something went wrong.
