Anyone has any idea how to do a GroupBy aggregation in Elastica? Is it even implemented there? If not, any idea how to implement a group by in Elastica, like another way of doing it? ---

Elastica is just a php client, right. So you are looking for examples of how to use the php client to write aggregations? Have you thought about using our Elasticsearch php client? [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-php](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-php) This is relatively old but can aid in your building of your query: [https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-php/issues/196#issuecomment-77161520](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-php/issues/196#issuecomment-77161520) ---
