advanced features out of Druid are covered. This page clarifies what is

Aggregations

|
Common aggregations, or Druid metrics can be defined and used in Superset.
|

|
|
|
The first and simpler use case is to use the checkbox matrix expose in your
|
|
|
|
datasource's edit view (``Sources -> Druid Datasources ->
|
|
|
|
[your datasource] -> Edit -> [tab] List Druid Column``).
|
|
|
|
Clicking the ``GroupBy`` and ``Filterable`` checkboxes will make the column
|
|
|
|
appear in the related dropdowns while in explore view. Checking
|
|
|
|
``Count Distinct``, ``Min``, ``Max`` or ``Sum`` will result in creating
|
|
|
|
new metrics that will appear in the ``List Druid Metric`` tab upon saving the
|
|
|
|
datasource. By editing these metrics, you'll notice that they their ``json``
|
|
|
|
element correspond to Druid aggregation definition. You can create your own
|
|
|
|
aggregations manually from the ``List Druid Metric`` tab following Druid
|
|
|
|
documentation.

Druid supports post aggregation and this works in Superset. All you have to
|
2016-05-20 15:11:22 -04:00
|
|
|
do is creating a metric, much like you would create an aggregation manually,
|
|
|
|
but specify ``postagg`` as a ``Metric Type``. You then have to provide a valid
|
|
|
|
json post-aggregation definition (as specified in the Druid docs) in the
|
|
|
|
Json field.
