This code is written in InfluxQL, a query language used with the InfluxDB time series database. The code retrieves and processes time-series data stored in a specific bucket. Here's a breakdown of what it does:
-
from(bucket: "watalevel")
This specifies the data source ("bucket") to query from. A bucket in InfluxDB is a logical location that stores time-series data. The query fetches data from the bucket named"watalevel"
. -
range(start: v.timeRangeStart, stop: v.timeRangeStop)
This filters the data to include only entries within a specified time range. Thev.timeRangeStart
andv.timeRangeStop
variables determine the start and stop times for the query (typically passed as parameters to the query). -
filter(fn: (r) => r["_measurement"] == "tank_status")
This filters the data further by only including rows where the_measurement
field equals"tank_status"
. In InfluxDB, a_measurement
is a logical grouping of data (like a "table" in relational databases). -
filter(fn: (r) => r["_field"] == "level")
This narrows the data down to rows where the_field
(a data column) is equal to"level"
. Fields in InfluxDB represent the actual data values (e.g., numeric or string sensor readings). -
aggregateWindow(every: v.windowPeriod, fn: mean, createEmpty: false)
This aggregates data within fixed time intervals (defined byv.windowPeriod
). Specifically, for each time window, the mean (average) of the "level" values is calculated. The parametercreateEmpty: false
ensures that empty windows (time intervals with no data) are not included in the result. -
yield(name: "mean")
Finally, this outputs the results of the query. The result is labeled with the name"mean"
to indicate that it contains the average values of the "level" field over time.
Summary:
This code fetches the "level" data from the "watalevel" bucket for a user-defined time range, filters it to only include measurements related to "tank_status," groups the data into regular time intervals, computes the average "level" in each interval, and outputs the result.
