Elasticsearch term aggregation with range doc count - elasticsearch

I want to aggregate a field and return only those buckets in which doc count is within 10 to 20 for e.g.
So far from documentation it says that we can provide min_doc_count parameter.
Is there any way we can provide max_doc_count also so i only get required buckets ?
Thanks

you can use the following query to filter the buckets using bucket_selector aggregation. You can take a deep look at pipeline aggregations and buckets paths here.
In the following example i am aggregating the document on product.name field where product is of type object for me.
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"values": {
"terms": {
"field": "product.name.raw",
"size": 10
},
"aggs": {
"final_filter": {
"bucket_selector": {
"buckets_path": {
"values": "_count"
},
"script": "params.values > 10 && params.values < 20"
}
}
}
}
}
}
Hope this helps
Thanks

Paginate an aggregation sorted by hits on Elastic index

I have an Elastic index (say file) where I append a document every time the file is downloaded by a client. Each document is quite basic, it contains a field filename and a date when to indicate the time of the download.
What I want to achieve is to get, for each file the number of times it has been downloaded in the last 3 months. Thanks to another question, I have a query that returns all the results:
{
"query": {
"range": {
"when": {
"gte": "now-3M"
}
}
},
"aggs": {
"downloads": {
"terms": {
"field": "filename.keyword",
"size": 1000
}
}
},
"size": 0
}
Now, I want to have a paginated result. The term aggreation cannot be paginated, so I use a composite aggregation. Of course, if there is a better aggregation, it can be used here...
So for the moment, I have something like that:
{
"query": {
"range": {
"when": {
"gte": "now-3M"
}
}
},
"aggs": {
"downloads_agg": {
"composite": {
"size": 100,
"sources": [
{
"downloads": {
"terms": {
"field": "filename.keyword"
}
}
}
]
}
}
},
"size": 0
}
This aggregation allows me to paginate (thanks to after_key value in response), but it is not sorted by the number of downloads - it is sorted by the filename.
How can I sort that composite aggregation on the number of documents for each filename in my index?
Thanks.
Composite aggregation don't allow sorting based on the value field.
Excerpt from the discussion on elastic forum:
it's designed as a memory-friendly way to paginate over aggregations.
Part of the tradeoff is that you lose things like ordering by doc
count, since that isn't known until after all the docs have been
collected.
I have no experience with Transforms (part of X-pack & Licensed) but you can try that out. Apart from this, I don't see a way to get the expected output.

Get max bucket of terms aggregation (with pipeline aggregation)

I was wondering how to get the bucket with the highest doc_count when using a terms aggregation with Elasticsearch. I'm using the Kibana sample data kibana_sample_data_flights:
GET kibana_sample_data_flights/_search
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"destinations": {
"terms": {
"field": "DestCityName"
}
}
}
}
If there was a single bucket with the max doc_count value I could set the size of the terms aggregation to 1, however this doesn't work if there are two buckets with the same max doc_count value.
Since I came accross pipeline aggregations, I feel there should be an easy way to achieve this. The max bucket aggregation seems to be able to deal with multiple max buckets, since the guide says this:
[...] which identifies the bucket(s) with the maximum value of [...]
However the only way to make this work was using a work-around with a sub-aggregation using value_count:
GET kibana_sample_data_flights/_search
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"destinations": {
"terms": {
"field": "DestCityName"
},
"aggs": {
"counter": {
"value_count": {
"field": "_id"
}
}
}
},
"max_destination": {
"max_bucket": {
"buckets_path": "destinations>counter"
}
}
}
}
a) Is there a better way in general, to find the terms bucket with the max value?
b) Is there a better way using pipeline aggrations?
Thanks in advance!
Well you can simplify as below and you don't need to make use of value_count aggregation.
However, unfortunately using max_bucket is the only way to get what you are looking for.
POST <your_index_name>/_search
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"destinations": {
"terms": {
"field": "DestCityName"
}
},
"max_destination": {
"max_bucket": {
"buckets_path": "destinations>_count" <---- Note the usage of _count
}
}
}
}
Hope this helps!

How do I select the top term buckets based on a rescore function in Elasticsearch

Consider the following query for Elasticsearch 5.6:
{
"size": 0,
"query": {
"match_all": {}
},
"rescore": [
{
"window_size": 10000,
"query": {
"rescore_query": {
"function_score": {
"boost_mode": "replace",
"script_score": {
"script": {
"source": "doc['topic_score'].value"
}
}
}
},
"query_weight": 0,
"rescore_query_weight": 1
}
}
],
"aggs": {
"distinct": {
"terms": {
"field": "identical_id",
"order": {
"top_score": "desc"
}
},
"aggs": {
"best_unique_result": {
"top_hits": {
"size": 1
}
},
"top_score": {
"max": {
"script": {
"inline": "_score"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
This is a simplified version where the real query has a more complex main query and the rescore function is far more intensive.
Let me explain it's purpose first incase I'm about to spend a 1000 hours developing a pen that writes in space when a pencil would actually solve my problem. I'm performing a fast initial query, then rescoring the top results with a much more intensive function. From those results I want to show the top distinct values, i.e. no two results should have the same identical_id. If there's a better way to do this I'd also consider that an answer.
I expected a query like this would order results by the rescore query, group all the results that had the same identical_id and display the top hit for each such distinct group. I also assumed that since I'm ordering those term aggregation buckets by the max parent _score, they would be ordered to reflect the best result they contain as determined from the original rescore query.
The reality is that the term buckets are ordered by the maximum query score and not the rescore query score. Strangely the top hits within the buckets do seem to use the rescore.
Is there a better way to achieve the end result that I want, or some way I can fix this query to work the way I expect it too?
From documentation :
The query rescorer executes a second query only on the Top-K results returned by the query and post_filter phases. The number of docs which will be examined on each shard can be controlled by the window_size parameter, which defaults to 10.
As the rescore query kicks in after the post_filter phase, I assume the term aggregation buckets are already fixed.
I have no idea on how you can combine rescore and aggregations. Sorry :(
I think I have a pretty great solution to this problem, but I'll let the bounty continue to expiration incase someone comes up with a better approach.
{
"size": 0,
"query": {
"match_all": {}
},
"aggs": {
"sample": {
"sampler": {
"shard_size": 10000
},
"aggs": {
"distinct": {
"terms": {
"field": "identical_id",
"order": {
"top_score": "desc"
}
},
"aggs": {
"best_unique_result": {
"top_hits": {
"size": 1,
"sort": [
{
"_script": {
"type": "number",
"script": {
"source": "doc['topic_score'].value"
},
"order": "desc"
}
}
]
}
},
"top_score": {
"max": {
"script": {
"source": "doc['topic_score'].value"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
The sampler aggregation will take the top N hits per shard from the core query and run aggregations over those. Then in the max aggregator that defines the bucket order I use the exact same script as the one I use to pick a top hit from the bucket. Now the buckets and the top hits are running over the same top N sets of items and the buckets will order by the max of the same score, generated from the same script. Unfortunately I still need run the script once to order the buckets and once to pick a top hit within the bucket, and you could use the rescore instead for the top hits ordering, but either way it has to run twice and I found it was faster as a sort script then as a rescore

How can I filter the counter less than a parameter in Kibana?

I have a question similar to this: How can I filter a field greater than a counter on Kibana? https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/9684
On this link there is a perfect answer: You need use "{'min_doc_count': X}" on your Json Input Advanced Bucket Option. Perfect, It runs exactly like I want, except because I want the oposite, something like "max_doc_count".
For my surprise, this options doesn't existis... Some one knows what would be the "max_doc_count" equivalent of?
In SQL would be something like: GROUP BY my_field HAVING COUNT(*) < 3
Thanks.
The correct way of doing this in ES is to use a bucket_selector pipeline aggregation with the special _count path.
POST /_search
{
"size": 0,
"aggs": {
"my_terms": {
"terms": {
"field": "my_field.keyword"
},
"aggs": {
"max_doc_count": {
"bucket_selector": {
"buckets_path": {
"count": "_count"
},
"script": {
"source": "params.count < 3"
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
In the results, the my_terms aggregations will only contain buckets where the document count is < 3. No need to order anything or to program your application to ignore anything.

ElasticSearch range in sum aggregation

I'm a new user of elasticsearch and I would like make a range on sum aggregation.
So, I have :
{
"query": {},
"aggs": {
"group_by_trainset" : {
"terms": {
"field": "trainset",
"order": { "sum_compteur": "desc" }
},
"aggs": {
"sum_compteur": {
"sum": {
"field": "compteur"
}
}
}
}
}
}
And I have a 10 first results.
I want a pagination or it's not possible to aggs on elasticsearch. I try to return the next 10 results.
So, I want display the 10 results that are lower than the lowest value of the "sum_compteur" of the first 10 results and I don't know how.
Thanks for your help !
For every hit you'll get same Aggregations given input parameters are not changes.
If you want to specify size in aggregation counts you can do is:
"aggs": {
"sum_compteur": {
"sum": {
"field": "compteur",
"size" : 1000,
"order" : { "_count" : "asc" }
}
}
}
Where *1000 is the no of aggregation values you need.
You can also sort the results using "order". And later add pagination in the output array..
