Sum Aggregationedit
A single-value metrics aggregation that sums up numeric values that are 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.
Assuming the data consists of documents representing sales records we can sum the sale price of all hats with:
POST /sales/_search?size=0
{
"query" : {
"constant_score" : {
"filter" : {
"match" : { "type" : "hat" }
}
}
},
"aggs" : {
"hat_prices" : { "sum" : { "field" : "price" } }
}
}
Resulting in:
{
...
"aggregations": {
"hat_prices": {
"value": 450.0
}
}
}
The name of the aggregation (hat_prices above) also serves as the key by which the aggregation result can be retrieved from the returned response.
Scriptedit
We could also use a script to fetch the sales price:
POST /sales/_search?size=0
{
"query" : {
"constant_score" : {
"filter" : {
"match" : { "type" : "hat" }
}
}
},
"aggs" : {
"hat_prices" : {
"sum" : {
"script" : {
"source": "doc.price.value"
}
}
}
}
}
This will interpret the script parameter as an inline script with the painless script language and no script parameters. To use a stored script use the following syntax:
POST /sales/_search?size=0
{
"query" : {
"constant_score" : {
"filter" : {
"match" : { "type" : "hat" }
}
}
},
"aggs" : {
"hat_prices" : {
"sum" : {
"script" : {
"id": "my_script",
"params" : {
"field" : "price"
}
}
}
}
}
}
Value Scriptedit
It is also possible to access the field value from the script using _value.
For example, this will sum the square of the prices for all hats:
POST /sales/_search?size=0
{
"query" : {
"constant_score" : {
"filter" : {
"match" : { "type" : "hat" }
}
}
},
"aggs" : {
"square_hats" : {
"sum" : {
"field" : "price",
"script" : {
"source": "_value * _value"
}
}
}
}
}
Missing valueedit
The missing parameter defines how documents that are missing a value should
be treated. By default documents missing the value will be ignored but it is
also possible to treat them as if they had a value. For example, this treats
all hat sales without a price as being 100.
