# Greater Than

### Overview

The **Greater Than Filter Component** checks whether a given input data is greater than a specified value. If the condition is met, the message is passed through the `greater` port; otherwise, it is routed to `notGreater`.

### Usage

This component is used to validate if a text, number, or date is greater than a predefined value, making it useful for conditional processing in workflows.

#### Properties

| Property      | Type      | Description                                                                                                                   |
| ------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `sourceData`  | `string`  | The data to be compared. Can be a number or date.                                                                             |
| `greaterThan` | `string`  | The value to compare against `sourceData`.                                                                                    |
| `exclusive`   | `boolean` | If `true`, only values strictly greater than `greaterThan` pass through. If `false`, values equal to `greaterThan` also pass. |

#### Input Ports

| Port | Description                                          |
| ---- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| `in` | Accepts input data and the value to compare against. |

#### Output Ports

| Port         | Description                                                                                |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `greater`    | Emits the message if `sourceData` is greater than (or equal to, by default) `greaterThan`. |
| `notGreater` | Emits the message if `sourceData` is not greater than `greaterThan`.                       |

#### Processing Logic

1. **Receives Input Data**:
   * Accepts a dataset (`sourceData`) and a comparison value (`greaterThan`).
2. **Checks for Greater Condition**:
   * If both values are numbers, compares them numerically.
   * If both values are dates, checks if `sourceData` is after `greaterThan`.
   * If `exclusive` is set to `true`, strict greater-than comparison is applied.
3. **Routes the Message**:
   * If `sourceData` is greater than `greaterThan`, the message is passed to the `greater` port.
   * Otherwise, it is passed to the `notGreater` port.

#### Output Data Schema

| Property      | Type      | Description                                                              |
| ------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `sourceData`  | `string`  | The original data that was checked.                                      |
| `greaterThan` | `string`  | The value compared against `sourceData`.                                 |
| `result`      | `boolean` | `true` if `sourceData` is greater than `greaterThan`, otherwise `false`. |

### Notes

* **Supports Numeric & Date Comparisons**: Compares numbers and dates effectively.
* **Configurable Strict Comparison**: The `exclusive` property determines whether equality should be considered.
* **Ideal for Conditional Filtering**: Useful in workflows requiring data validation based on numeric or date values.

This component is essential for workflows that need to filter or route messages based on whether a value exceeds a predefined threshold.
