Hi. Anyone have an idea of how I would create a query which finds the data backing a trend graph where date is X and num(docs) is on Y axis ?
This is quite a common use case in "buzz" analysis and currently I'm doing a stupid query which iterates over the date range and queries lucene for every date. Not very fast and not very flexible. More specifically something like this but I need to add free text query as well and then I cannot use MySQL for performance reasons. Any ideas ? --clip-- mysql> select count(id) as Y,publishDate as X from FeedItem where publishDate between "2008-08-01" and "2008-08-31" group by DAY(publishDate) order by publishDate asc; +-------+---------------------+ | Y | X | +-------+---------------------+ | 26663 | 2008-08-01 00:00:00 | | 22478 | 2008-08-02 00:00:00 | | 25745 | 2008-08-03 00:00:00 | | 30576 | 2008-08-04 00:00:00 | | 31351 | 2008-08-05 00:00:00 | | 31084 | 2008-08-06 00:00:00 | | 31245 | 2008-08-07 00:00:00 | | 29518 | 2008-08-08 00:00:00 | | 26001 | 2008-08-09 00:00:00 | | 28687 | 2008-08-10 00:00:00 | | 32957 | 2008-08-11 00:00:00 | | 33251 | 2008-08-12 00:00:00 | | 33062 | 2008-08-13 00:00:00 | | 33960 | 2008-08-14 00:00:00 | | 31034 | 2008-08-15 00:00:00 | | 26726 | 2008-08-16 00:00:00 | | 27543 | 2008-08-17 00:00:00 | | 36887 | 2008-08-18 00:00:00 | | 35376 | 2008-08-19 00:00:00 | | 34573 | 2008-08-20 00:00:00 | | 33889 | 2008-08-21 00:00:00 | | 30604 | 2008-08-22 00:00:00 | | 26875 | 2008-08-23 00:00:00 | | 27356 | 2008-08-24 00:00:00 | | 33438 | 2008-08-25 00:00:00 | | 33102 | 2008-08-26 00:00:00 | | 31720 | 2008-08-27 00:00:00 | | 26133 | 2008-08-28 00:00:00 | | 22781 | 2008-08-29 00:00:00 | | 20198 | 2008-08-30 00:00:00 | | 20 | 2008-08-31 00:00:00 | +-------+---------------------+ -- Marcus Herou CTO and co-founder Tailsweep AB +46702561312 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tailsweep.com/ http://blogg.tailsweep.com/ -- Marcus Herou CTO and co-founder Tailsweep AB +46702561312 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tailsweep.com/ http://blogg.tailsweep.com/
