This plugin adds the possibility to create hierarchical aggregations. Each term is split on a provided separator (default "/") then aggregated by level. For a complete example see https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/8896
Two different aggregations are available:
path_hierarchy
for hierarchical aggregations on keywords
field or scripts
date_hierarchy
for hierachical aggregations on date
fields. It is more optimized to use this aggregation for date instead of a script.This is a multi bucket aggregation.
bin/plugin --install path_hierarchy --url "https://github.com/opendatasoft/elasticsearch-aggregation-pathhierarchy/releases/download/v7.17.6.1/pathhierarchy-aggregation-7.17.6.1.zip"
Build the plugin using gradle:
./gradlew build
OR
./gradlew assemble
(to avoid tests)
Then the following command will start a dockerized ES and will install the previously built plugin:
docker-compose up
NOTE: In
docker-compose.yml
you can uncomment the debug env and attach a REMOTE JVM on*:5005
to debug the plugin.
field
or script
: field to aggregate onseparator
: separator for path hierarchy (default to "/")order
: order parameter to define how to sort result. Allowed parameters are _key
, _count
or sub aggregation name. Default to {"_count": "desc}.size
: size parameter to define how many buckets should be returned. Default to 10.shard_size
: how many buckets returned by each shards. Set to size if smaller, default to size if the search request needs to go to a single shard, and (size * 1.5 + 10) otherwise (more information here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/search-aggregations-bucket-terms-aggregation.html#_shard_size_3).min_depth
: Set minimum depth level. Default to 0.max_depth
: Set maximum depth level. -1
means no limit. Default to 3.depth
: Retrieve values for specified depth. Shortcut, instead of setting min_depth
and max_depth
parameters to the same value.keep_blank_path
: Keep blank path as bucket. if this option is set to false, chained separator will be ignored. Default to false.min_doc_count
: Return buckets containing at least min_doc_count
document. Default to 0# Add data:
