How to let output anchors have different values?

[microdou]

I'd like to let a multi-anchor node behave as follows:

1. Receive parameters from multiple input anchors;
2. Compute multiple output values/objects from the inputs;
3. Feed the multiple outputs into dedicated output anchors;

I'm currently able to do the first two steps. Is there any suggestion on how to do the third step? Looks like I can only feed the same output store containing all values/objects to every output anchor. How can I let each output anchor only have one dedicated output value/object?

Would the following work for your use case? (This is obviously simplified)

<script>
    const subtract = (inputs: InputStructure) => inputs.value1 - inputs.value2;
    const add = (inputs: InputStructure) => inputs.value1 + inputs.value2;
    const multiply = (inputs: InputStructure) => inputs.value1 * inputs.value2;

    const outputOne = generateOutput(inputs, subtract);
    const outputTwo = generateOutput(inputs, add);
    const outputThree = generateOutput(inputs, multiply);
</script>

<Node >
     <Anchor outputStore={outputOne} output />
     <Anchor outputStore={outputTwo} output />
     <Anchor outputStore={outputThree} output />
</Node>

We plan on adding the same idea of a "key" from our input store to output stores as well, which would allow you to make a single processor function that returns an object and just tell each anchor to be associated with a particular key/value pair.

Looks like it will work. Thanks!

Was looking for if there is an automated way to extract output values based on key, and looks like that's exactly your plan :)
