Structuring aggregations
editStructuring aggregations
editAs explained in the Aggregations guide, you can define sub aggregations inside an aggregation.
An aggregation could be a metrics aggregation or a bucket aggregation.
For example, here is a 3 levels aggregation composed of:
- Terms aggregation (bucket)
- Date Histogram aggregation (bucket)
- Average aggregation (metric)
SearchResponse sr = node.client().prepareSearch() .addAggregation( AggregationBuilders.terms("by_country").field("country") .subAggregation(AggregationBuilders.dateHistogram("by_year") .field("dateOfBirth") .calendarInterval(DateHistogramInterval.YEAR) .subAggregation(AggregationBuilders.avg("avg_children").field("children")) ) ) .execute().actionGet();
