@jnidzwetzki jnidzwetzki commented Dec 6, 2023

So far, we allowed only CAggs without origin or offset parameters in the
time_bucket definition. This commit adds support for the remaining
time_bucket variants.

Fixes #2265, Fixes #5453, Fixes #5828


Needed changes

  • Allow additional time_bucket variants
  • Enhance time_bucket query parsing in CAgg code to capture offset/origin properly
  • Align refresh window
  • Call proper time_bucket functions (offset and origin are handled by different implementations)
  • Restrict use of broken time_bucket queries (i.e., variable bucket with offset)

Todo

Looks good. I suggested to add a few comments.

I don't follow. The description says that you "[Add] Support for CAgg with time_bucket origin/offset parameter", but this test shows that it does not support it. What am I missing?

Not sure why we are not using DecodeTimezoneName or DecodeTimezoneNameToTz? I realize this function already existed, so this is just an observation. Nothing to do for this PR.

Hello! Would this PR be able to close issue #5806 ? I don't see them linked. Thank you!

@guiofranca I suspect not. This issue is about being able to use offset and origin parameters in caggs, but the referenced issue is about having inclusive and exclusive ranges for the buckets.

Hello! Would this PR be able to close issue #5806 ? I don't see them linked. Thank you!

@guiofranca I suspect not. This issue is about being able to use offset and origin parameters in caggs, but the referenced issue is about having inclusive and exclusive ranges for the buckets.

Hey, thanks for the reply @mkindahl ! I understand that is being added support for origin and offset for the time_bucket, but shifting the interval will not be suported as @jnidzwetzki said earlier.

So the following time bucket for the CAgg would still not be supported because of the shifting done:

time_bucket('15 min', instant, '1 second'::interval) - '1 second'::interval

The thing I'm looking forward to test, when released, is the following statement:

time_bucket('15 min', instant, '1 microsecond'::interval) as bucket

This would not change how timestamp is displayed to the second, but would change how I query the data, requiring me to add that offset to my query range.

Anyway, grouping the data with the correct offset is what I'm mainlingly looking for, the shifting part is manageable outside the CAgg.

So far, we allowed only CAggs without origin or offset parameters in the
time_bucket definition. This commit adds support for the remaining
time_bucket variants.

  - Add minmax sparse indexes when compressing columns with btree indexes
  - Make compression use the defaults functions
  - Vectorize filters in WHERE clause that contain text equality operators and LIKE expressions

**Deprecation warning**
* Starting on this release will not be possible to create Continuous Aggregate using `time_bucket_ng` anymore and it will be completely removed on the upcoming releases.
* Recommend users to [migrate their old Continuous Aggregate format to the new one](https://docs.timescale.com/use-timescale/latest/continuous-aggregates/migrate/) because it support will be completely removed in next releases prevent them to migrate.
* This is the last release supporting PostgreSQL 13.

**For on-premise users and this release only**, you will need to run [this SQL script](https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb-extras/blob/master/utils/2.15.X-fix_hypertable_foreign_keys.sql) after running `ALTER EXTENSION`. More details can be found in the pull request [#6786](#6797).

**Features**
* #6382 Support for time_bucket with origin and offset in CAggs
* #6696 Improve defaults for compression segment_by and order_by
* #6705 Add sparse minmax indexes for compressed columns that have uncompressed btree indexes
* #6754 Allow DROP CONSTRAINT on compressed hypertables
* #6767 Add metadata table `_timestaledb_internal.bgw_job_stat_history` for tracking job execution history
* #6798 Prevent usage of deprecated time_bucket_ng in CAgg definition
* #6810 Add telemetry for access methods
* #6811 Remove no longer relevant timescaledb.allow_install_without_preload GUC
* #6837 Add migration path for CAggs using time_bucket_ng
* #6865 Update the watermark when truncating a CAgg

**Bugfixes**
* #6617 Fix error in show_chunks
* #6621 Remove metadata when dropping chunks
* #6677 Fix snapshot usage in CAgg invalidation scanner
* #6698 Define meaning of 0 retries for jobs as no retries
* #6717 Fix handling of compressed tables with primary or unique index in COPY path
* #6726 Fix constify cagg_watermark using window function when querying a CAgg
* #6729 Fix NULL start value handling in CAgg refresh
* #6732 Fix CAgg migration with custom timezone / date format settings
* #6752 Remove custom autovacuum setting from compressed chunks
* #6770 Fix plantime chunk exclusion for OSM chunk
* #6789 Fix deletes with subqueries and compression
* #6796 Fix a crash involving a view on a hypertable
* #6797 Fix foreign key constraint handling on compressed hypertables
* #6816 Fix handling of chunks with no contraints
* #6820 Fix a crash when the ts_hypertable_insert_blocker was called directly
* #6849 Use non-orderby compressed metadata in compressed DML
* #6867 Clean up compression settings when deleting compressed cagg
* #6869 Fix compressed DML with constraints of form value OP column
* #6870 Fix bool expression pushdown for queries on compressed chunks

**Thanks**
* @brasic for reporting a crash when the ts_hypertable_insert_blocker was called directly
* @bvanelli for reporting an issue with the jobs retry count
* @djzurawsk For reporting error when dropping chunks
* @Dzuzepppe for reporting an issue with DELETEs using subquery on compressed chunk working incorrectly.
* @hongquan For reporting a 'timestamp out of range' error during CAgg migrations
* @kevcenteno for reporting an issue with the show_chunks API showing incorrect output when 'created_before/created_after' was used with time-partitioned columns.
* @mahipv For starting working on the job history PR
* @rovo89 For reporting constify cagg_watermark not working using window function when querying a CAgg

Hi, I tried v2.15.1 today with the below command. It seems that the offset and origin parameters are still not working. Is there something I am missing? Thanks!

dbdev=# CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW vtstable WITH (timescaledb.continuous, timescaledb.materialized_only = FALSE) AS
SELECT time_bucket(INTERVAL '4 HOURS', time, 'America/New_York', TIMESTAMPTZ '2000-01-01 22:00:00+00') AS time,
max(volume) AS maxcount, sum(volume) AS totalcount FROM tstable GROUP BY time_bucket(INTERVAL '4 HOURS', time, 'America/New_York', TIMESTAMPTZ '2000-01-01 22:00:00+00');
ERROR:  cannot create continuous aggregate with variable-width bucket using offset or origin.

This was a restriction that will be removed in the upcoming 2.15.2. I'm planning to tag the release and build packages and docker images tomorrow.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I can't wait to try this feature.
