trim_to()

Since 1.16.0

Reduce the time range covered by a heartbeat aggregate. This can only be used to narrow the covered interval, passing arguments that would extend beyond the range covered by the initial aggregate gives an error.

Samples

Given a table called liveness containing weekly heartbeat aggregates in column health with timestamp column date, use this query to roll up several weeks and trim the result to an exact month:

SELECT trim_to(rollup(health), '03-1-2022 UTC', '1 month')
FROM liveness
WHERE date > '02-21-2022 UTC' AND date < '3-7-2022 UTC'

Arguments

The syntax is:

trim_to(
    agg HEARTBEATAGG,
    start TIMESTAMPTZ,
    duration INTERVAL
) RETURNS HEARTBEATAGG
