Dynamically passing to query

[cool999 (cool)]

Hi Team,

I have below similar logs.

I have created dummy index and created mapping like below,

PUT new
{
  "mappings": {
    "properties": {
      "@timestamp": {
        "type":   "date",
        "format": "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS"
      }
    }
  }
}

and indexed data as below,

PUT /new/_doc/1
{
  "@timestamp": "2021-11-05 08:12:14.534",
  "level": "INFO",
  "id": "1",
  "text": "website is accessed",
  "status": "clicked"
}

PUT /new/_doc/2
{
  "@timestamp": "2021-10-14 09:11:14.534",
  "level": "INFO",
  "id": "3",
  "text": "website is accessed",
  "status": "clicked"
}

PUT /new/_doc/3
{
  "@timestamp": "2021-09-09 02:08:20.534",
  "level": "INFO",
  "id": "4",
  "text": "website is accessed",
  "status": "clicked"
}

I am able to fetch the total counts using below request query,

GET new/_search
{
  "aggs": {},
  "size": 0,
  "fields": [],
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": [],
      "filter": [
        {
          "bool": {
            "should": [
              {
                "match_phrase": {
                  "text": "website is accessed"
                }
              }
            ],
            "minimum_should_match": 1
          }
        },
        {
          "range": {
            "@timestamp": {
              "gte": "2021-10-01",
              "lte": "2021-10-30"
            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "should": [],
      "must_not": []
    }
  }
}

Getting response as below,

{
  "took" : 0,
  "timed_out" : false,
  "_shards" : {
    "total" : 1,
    "successful" : 1,
    "skipped" : 0,
    "failed" : 0
  },
  "hits" : {
    "total" : {
      "value" : 1,
      "relation" : "eq"
    },
    "max_score" : null,
    "hits" : [ ]
  }
}

As you see, i need to hardcode the date to fetch the value for a particular month i.e to fetch the same information for sept month, i need to modify the date time range as below in curl request ,

"range": {
  "@timestamp": {
    "gte": "2021-09-01",
    "lte": "2021-09-30"
    }
    }

How can i pass year and month dynamically (i.e without actually hardcoding it request itself ) to the curl request which will fetch the information for that particular month, year?

Thanks,

Not via Dev Tools, no.

You could probably do it via the shell and curl and date.

Hi @warkolm,

Thanks for reply.

Yes i am asking how to do achieve this from curl call?

Above dev-tools example was just to create things quickly.

Below is the curl request for above call.

curl -u elastic:xxx  -XGET "http://10.10.10.10:9200/new/_search?pretty" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d'
{
  "aggs": {},
  "size": 0,
  "fields": [],
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": [],
      "filter": [
        {
          "bool": {
            "should": [
              {
                "match_phrase": {
                  "text": "website is accessed"
                }
              }
            ],
            "minimum_should_match": 1
          }
        },
        {
          "range": {
            "@timestamp": {
              "gte": "2021-10-01",
              "lte": "2021-10-30"
            }
          }
        }
      ],
      "should": [],
      "must_not": []
    }
  }
}'

I am able to get the results for last month (Nov) or last 2 months (Oct) and so on using below,

last month - Nov -

"gte": "now-M",
"lt": "now/M"

2 months - Oct

"gte": "now-2M/M",
"lte": "now-2M/M"

But is there way to provide desired year and month to retrieve results?
