Multiple aggregations min/mean/max *per day*

Similar to another question (Multiple Aggregation Projections in fluxql).

That question does not seem to aggregate per (e.g.) day, so I assume it will get the min/mean/max for all data.

I have heart rate data (_field: min, avg, max), and I want to aggregate them per day.
The default query uses “mean” for all of them:

from(bucket: "healthdata")
  |> range(start: v.timeRangeStart, stop: v.timeRangeStop)
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "heart_rate")
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "avg" or r["_field"] == "max" or r["_field"] == "min")
  |> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: mean, createEmpty: false)
  |> yield(name: "mean")

Want to get -aggregated per day- min for _field:min, max for _field:max and mean for _field:avg

Suggestions?

Hello @wvk,
You can do the following:

common = from(bucket: "healthdata")
  |> range(start: v.timeRangeStart, stop: v.timeRangeStop)
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "heart_rate")

minHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "min")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: min, createEmpty: false)
|> yield(name: "min")

maxHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "max")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: max, createEmpty: false)
|> yield(name: "max")

avgHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "avg")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: mean, createEmpty: false)
|> yield(name: "mean")

When using variables try not to name the variable the same thing as a Flux function to avoid naming conflicts.
You can pass any selector or aggregator function into the aggregateWindow() function.

Please let me know if you need more help!

Thanks.

Thanks @Anaisdg !
What is the step to combine the three? I see union / join / map in other examples, but not sure what it would look like in this case.

Hello @wvk,
Why do you want to combine all three?
What are you looking to do after you combine them?

As you probably can tell I am a novice. Would like to make request from application to InfluxDB and get one response with various metrics. Therefore thought I needed to combine?

I don’t think you need to combine. The query above will produce all of your results they’ll just be in different tables.
Are you using a client library? They usually have examples for how to iterate through responses to get the values from all of the tables. I would suggest trying that first.

You can also use array.from() to construct a final table:

import "array"
common = from(bucket: "healthdata")
  |> range(start: v.timeRangeStart, stop: v.timeRangeStop)
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "heart_rate")

minHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "min")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: min, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


maxHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "max")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: max, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


avgHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "avg")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1d, fn: mean, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


array.from(rows: [{_time: now(), min: minHeart._value, max: maxHeart._value, mean: avgHeart._value}])

@wvk but yes you can also use union()

union(tables: [minHeart, maxHeart, avgHeart])

Hello, @Anaisdg, please allow me to ask a (perhaps silly) question:

How come that in your original answer after the first pipeline (common = …) all three following pipelines (minHeart = …, maxHeart = … and avgHeart = …) get the output of the first as their input (despite common isn’t explicitly used there)?

Best regards!

Hello @Gnoudini,
Sorry it should be. I edited it.

Hello, @Anaisdg

import "array"
common = from(bucket: "GIN")
  |> range(start: v.timeRangeStart, stop: v.timeRangeStop)
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "IPE")

minHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "Global")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: min, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


maxHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "Global")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: max, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


avgHeart = common
|> filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "Global")
|> aggregateWindow(every: 1m, fn: mean, createEmpty: false)
|> findRecord(fn: (key) => true, idx: 0)


array.from(rows: [{_time: now(), min: minHeart._value, max: maxHeart._value, mean: avgHeart._value}])

I want to obtain the max, min and mean values in this table.

The values I’m supposed to get are 28.8 (min), 36.7(max) and 32.7(mean).

Thanks in advance for your help.
