Like with the normal <<search-aggregations-bucket-histogram-aggregation,histogram>>, both document level scripts and
|
||||
value level scripts are supported. It is also possilbe to control the order of the returned buckets using the `order`
|

settings and empty buckets can also be returned by setting the `empty_buckets` field to `true` (defaults to `false`).

settings and filter the returned buckets based on a `min_doc_count` setting (by defaults to all buckets with

`min_doc_count > 1` will be returned).

A multi-bucket values source based aggregation that can be applied on numeric values extracted from the documents. It dynamically builds fixed size (a.k.a. interval) buckets over the values. For example, if the documents have a field that holds a price (numeric), we can configure this aggregation to dynamically build buckets with interval `5` (in case of price it may represent $5). When the aggregation executes, the price field of every document will be evaluated and will be rounded down to its closest bucket - for example, if the price is `32` and the bucket size is `5` then the rounding will yield `30` and thus the document will "fall" into the bucket that is associated withe the key `30`. To make this more formal, here is the rounding function that is used:
