TopNMetricSpec
The topN metric spec specifies how topN values should be sorted.
Numeric TopNMetricSpec
The simplest metric specification is a String value indicating the metric to sort topN results by. They are included in a topN query with:
"metric": <metric_value_string>
The metric field can also be given as a JSON object. The grammar for dimension values sorted by numeric value is shown below:
"metric": {
"type": "numeric",
"metric": "<metric_value>"
}
| property | description | required? |
|---|---|---|
| type | this indicates a numeric sort | yes |
| metric | the actual metric field in which results will be sorted by | yes |
Lexicographic TopNMetricSpec
The grammar for dimension values sorted lexicographically is as follows:
"metric": {
"type": "lexicographic",
"previousStop": "<previousStop_value>"
}
| property | description | required? |
|---|---|---|
| type | this indicates a lexicographic sort | yes |
| previousStop | the starting point of the lexicographic sort. For example, if a previousStop value is 'b', all values before 'b' are discarded. This field can be used to paginate through all the dimension values. | no |
