Scripted metric aggregations

The scripted_metric metric is a multi-value metric aggregation that returns metrics calculated from a specified script.

A script has four stages: the initial stage, the map stage, the combine stage, and the reduce stage.

  • init_script: (OPTIONAL) Sets the initial state and executes before any collection of documents.
  • map_script: Checks the value of the type field and executes the aggregation on the collected documents.
  • combine_script: Aggregates the state returned from every shard. The aggregated value is returned to the coordinating node.
  • reduce_script: Provides access to the variable states; this variable combines the results from the combine_script on each shard into an array.

The following example aggregates the different HTTP response types in web log data:

GET opensearch_dashboards_sample_data_logs/_search
{
  "size": 0,
  "aggregations": {
    "responses.counts": {
      "scripted_metric": {
        "init_script": "state.responses = ['error':0L,'success':0L,'other':0L]",
        "map_script": """
              def code = doc['response.keyword'].value;
                 if (code.startsWith('5') || code.startsWith('4')) {
                  state.responses.error += 1 ;
                  } else if(code.startsWith('2')) {
                   state.responses.success += 1;
                  } else {
                  state.responses.other += 1;
                }
             """,
        "combine_script": "state.responses",
        "reduce_script": """
            def counts = ['error': 0L, 'success': 0L, 'other': 0L];
                for (responses in states) {
                 counts.error += responses['error'];
                  counts.success += responses['success'];
                counts.other += responses['other'];
        }
        return counts;
        """
      }
