4 years ago We use cube.js to render a bunch of table that shows a top hundreds entities for whatever metrics, so we'd like to call other services running on the same network server side to enrich those table (using the cube.js tasks) But I think I found a way to do that and will post here once I tried

4 years ago @rawpixel-vincent That makes sense. Would love to hear about the approach you try! So is a challenge basically to run your service for records in Cube.js result set?

4 years ago cool, I saw you are planning to migrate the express server integration to a micro service architecture. So what I suggest would not work. Anyway, what I want to do would solve that issue, I want to call the cube.js service from another service on the same network. So is there a way to call the cube.js service from the server side, not using cube.js client api?
Calling my service from the frontend on the result set is one solution, but less efficient in our case

4 years ago no problem.., I can use the cube.js client https://cube.dev/docs/@cubejs-client-core and implement what i want on my service..
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Being able to optionally transform a set of results on the server side (after caching or before caching, to discuss).
Describe the solution you'd like Given a specific cube.js server request, I should be able to hook into the set of results and transform it.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Additional context In our use case, transforming the set of results directly within the cube.js server would be the more efficient way to do it.
