=== Stats Aggregation
|
|
|
|
A `multi-value` metrics aggregation that computes stats over numeric values extracted from the aggregated documents. These values can be extracted either from specific numeric fields in the documents, or be generated by a provided script.
|
|
|
|
The stats that are returned consist of: `min`, `max`, `sum`, `count` and `avg`.
|
|
|
|
Assuming the data consists of documents representing exams grades (between 0 and 100) of students
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
"grades_stats" : { "stats" : { "field" : "grade" } }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The above aggregation computes the grades statistics over all documents. The aggregation type is `stats` and the `field` setting defines the numeric field of the documents the stats will be computed on. The above will return the following:
|
|
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
"aggregations": {
|
|
"grades_stats": {
|
|
"count": 6,
|
|
"min": 60,
|
|
"max": 98,
|
|
"avg": 78.5,
|
|
"sum": 471
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The name of the aggregation (`grades_stats` above) also serves as the key by which the aggregation result can be retrieved from the returned response.
|
|
|
|
==== Script
|
|
|
|
Computing the grades stats based on a script:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
...,
|
|
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
"grades_stats" : { "stats" : { "script" : "doc['grade'].value" } }
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
TIP: The `script` parameter expects an inline script. Use `script_id` for indexed scripts and `script_file` for scripts in the `config/scripts/` directory.
|
|
|
|
===== Value Script
|
|
|
|
It turned out that the exam was way above the level of the students and a grade correction needs to be applied. We can use a value script to get the new stats:
|
|
|
|
[source,js]
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
{
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
"aggs" : {
|
|
"grades_stats" : {
|
|
"stats" : {
|
|
"field" : "grade",
|
|
"script" : "_value * correction",
|
|
"params" : {
|
|
"correction" : 1.2
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
