recordPerson not working when using mockCohort()

[martaalcalde]

When trying to use the argument recordPerson in mockCohort() function, it does not work as I expected. Am I doing something wrong?

cdm <- omock::mockCdmReference() |>
  omock::mockPerson(nPerson = 10) |>
  omock::mockObservationPeriod()

cdm <- cdm |> omock::mockCohort(recordPerson = 1)

cdm$cohort
#> # A tibble: 10 × 4
#>    cohort_definition_id subject_id cohort_start_date cohort_end_date
#>                   <int>      <int> <date>            <date>

recordPerson is an average. you have 10 people in person table, so it gives you a cohort of 10 x 1 rows.
