Feature request : use the results of a terms facet to populate a stacked histogram about kibana

I like the idea of stacking the top x, where the user can define how many x is, then grouping the rest in "other". Hope that helps.

Otherwise you can end up with too many stacks in a single columns, making it unreadable.

This would make the multi-search feature a heck of a lot more useful for discovering events. As well as graphing the top X events it would be useful to be able to graph the bottom X (least common) events over time.

Just added this in the form of the "derivequeries" panel. It takes a query, a field and count, uses that to generate a multi-query event which can be received by both the histogram panel and the hits panel (eg, in bar, pie or list mode)

Looks awesome. Thanks! We will test soon!

Thank you. It looks great.

Rashid, just a question : how does the derivequeries panel affect the other panels if in the same group (I mean except histograms and hits) ? It looks like if I replace the primary stringqueries panel with a derivequeries panel, the table panel only displays the events with a "top X" value. But when I filter the table view (in the details pane), the query in the derivequeries panel input box becomes incoherent.

[rashidkpc]

Admittedly, derivequeries is really targeted at panels that support multiple queries. In fact, I should probably disable its ability to receive 'query' events as you're right, they don't make any sense.

Is there a way to make a derived query persistent? I want to setup a histogram that always displays the latest counts for variables in a particular field. It seems derivequeries only acts on user input. Is this true?

Hi rashidkpc, how can I add field "field" to field QUERY because i tried with derivequeries but I wasn't able to do nothing.

I'm using Kibana3 milestone 3

Thanks in advance.

Is this already implemented in the latest version of Kibana? And if not how can I add it to our install please? Thanks!
