Hi there

I have some data like :  
{  
"url":"xxx",  
"pv":n,  
"date":Date  
}  
url is a string and pv is an integer, what I want is to sum pv of an url  
form one date to another date, what aggregation should I use?

Hi Helennie,

Depending on your use case you can do any one of a few options:

1. Search for a specific date range, a specific URL and retrieve the count  
of pv for the URL over the date range:  
{  
"query": {  
"constant\_score": {  
"filter": {  
"bool": {  
"must": [  
{  
"range": {  
"date": {  
"from": "2014/01/01",  
"to": "2014/01/04"  
}  
}  
},  
{  
"term": {  
"url": "[http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com)"  
}  
}  
]  
}  
}  
}  
},  
"aggs": {  
"pvCount": {  
"sum": {  
"field" : "pv"  
}  
}  
}  
}

2. Search for a specific date range and return an aggregation for the count  
of pv for the top N URLs ordered by pv:  
{  
"query": {  
"constant\_score": {  
"filter": {  
"range": {  
"date": {  
"from": "2014/01/01",  
"to": "2014/01/01"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
},  
"aggs": {  
"topURLs": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "url",  
"size": 10,  
"order": {  
"pvCount": "desc"  
}  
},  
"aggs": {  
"pvCount": {  
"sum": {  
"field" : "pv"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

3. Return an aggregation which buckets date ranges and within those buckets  
returns the count of pv for the top N URLs ordered by pv:  
{  
"aggs": {  
"dateByDay": {  
"date\_histogram": {  
"field": "date",  
"interval": "day"  
},  
"aggs": {  
"topURLs": {  
"terms": {  
"field": "url",  
"size": 10,  
"order": {  
"pvCount": "desc"  
}  
},  
"aggs": {  
"pvCount": {  
"sum": {  
"field" : "pv"  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}  
}

I hope this helps clarify some of your options,

Regards,

Colin
