  - getPluginId
```
String getPluginId()
```
  - setPluginId
```
void setPluginId(String pluginId)
```
  - getPluginName
```
String getPluginName()
```
  - setPluginName
```
void setPluginName(String pluginName)
```
  - clone
```
IExecutionDataSampler<Store> clone()
```
  - createSamplerStore
```
Store createSamplerStore(ExecutionDataSamplerMeta samplerMeta)
```
    Create a sampler store to match the sampler. It will allow you to store your intermediate sampler results.
    
    Parameters:
    
    samplerMeta - Metadata about the transform we're sampling for.
    
    Returns:
    
    A new sampler store instance.
  - sampleRow
```
void sampleRow(Store samplerStore,
               IStream.StreamType streamType,
               IRowMeta rowMeta,
               Object[] row)
        throws HopException
```
    Sample one row in a stream or rows. It's up to the plugin to know what to do with it.
    
    Parameters:
    
    samplerStore - A place to store the samples and intermediate results
    
    streamType - The type of stream we're sampling from. (INPUT, OUTPUT, READ, WRITTEN, ...)
    
    rowMeta - The row metadata
    
    row - The row data itself
    
    Throws:
    
    HopException
