The date_histogram accepts an interval which can be either a calendar interval (DST-aware, leap seconds, arbitrary length of months, etc) or fixed interval (strict multiples of SI units). Unfortunately this is inferred by first trying to parse as a calendar interval, then falling back to fixed if that fails. This leads to confusing arrangement where `1d` == calendar, but `2d` == fixed. And if you want a day of fixed time, you have to specify `24h` (e.g. the next smallest unit). This arrangement is very error-prone for users. This PR adds `calendar_interval` and `fixed_interval` parameters to any code that uses intervals (date_histogram, rollup, composite, datafeed, etc). Calendar only accepts calendar intervals, fixed accepts any combination of units (meaning `1d` can be used to specify `24h` in fixed time), and both are mutually exclusive. The old interval behavior is deprecated and will throw a deprecation warning. It is also mutually exclusive with the two new parameters. In the future the old dual-purpose interval will be removed. The change applies to both REST and java clients. |
