The builder for queries that select a range of events from a time series.
See ITimeSeries for an overview of the various types of range query:
ITimeSeries.RangeQuery returns a default IRangeQuery{TValue}. Further queries with different parameters can be configured using the methods of this interface. IRangeQuery{TValue} instances are immutable. Each method returns a copy of this query with a modified setting. Method calls can be chained together in a fluent manner to create a query.
A value range query returns a merged view of part of a time series. This is the most common time series query and appropriate for most applications.
A value range query begins with the ForValues operator, followed by the view range. The view range determines the range of original events the time series that are of interest. See Range expressions below for the various ways to specify a range.
The events returned by the query are constrained by an optional edit range, introduced by the EditRange operator. An event will only be included in the result if it is in the edit range. Let's consider some examples to see how the view range and the edit range interact.
| Query | Meaning |
|---|---|
RangeQuery.ForValues(); | For each original event in the time series, either return the latest edit event or if it has no edit events, return the original event. |
RangeQuery.ForValues().From( 100 ).To( 150 ); | For each original event with a sequence number between 100 and 150 (inclusive), either return the latest edit event or if it has no edit events, return the original event. |
RangeQuery.ForValues().From( 100 ).To( 150 ).EditRange().From( 400 ); | For each original event with a sequence number between 100 and 150 (inclusive), return the latest edit event with a sequence number greater than or equal to 400. The result of this query will not include any original events because there is no overlap between the view range and the edit range. |
Value range queries can be further refined using the Limit(long) and As{TNewValue} operators.
An edit range query returns an unmerged view of a time series than can include both original events and the edit events that replace them. Edit range queries are rarely needed - value range queries satisfy most use cases.
An edit range query begins with the ForEdits() operator, followed by the view range. The view range determines the range of original events the time series that are of interest. The result will only contain original events that are in the view range, and edit events for original events in the view range. See Range expressions below for the various ways to specify a range.
The events returned by the query are constrained by an optional edit range, introduced by the LatestEdits or AllEdits operators. An event will only be included in the result if it is in the edit range. Let's consider some example edit range queries.
| Query | Meaning |
|---|---|
RangeQuery.ForEdits(); | Return all events in a time series. |
RangeQuery.ForEdits().From( 100 ).To( 150 ); | Return the original events with a sequence number between 100 and 150 (inclusive) and all edit events in the time series that refer to the original events. |
RangeQuery.ForEdits().From( 100 ).To( 150 ).LatestEdits(); | Return the original events with a sequence number between 100 and 150 (inclusive) and the latest edit events in the time series that refer to the original events. |
RangeQuery.ForEdits().From( 100 ).To( 150 ).AllEdits().From( 400 ); | For each original event with a sequence number between 100 and 150, (inclusive) return all edit events with a sequence number greater than or equal to 400. The result of this query will not include any original events because there is no overlap between the view range and the edit range. |
Edit range queries can be further refined using the Limit(long) and As{TNewValue} operators.
Range expressions are used to specify the view and edit ranges in value range and edit range queries. Each range expression has an anchor that determines where to start, and a span that determines where the range ends. Both anchor and span are inclusive - if an anchor or span falls on an event, the event is included in the result.
Both anchor and the span are optional. If the anchor is unspecified, the range begins at the start of the time series. If the span is unspecified, the range continues until the end of the time series.
There are five ways to specify an anchor.
| Anchor | Meaning |
|---|---|
| From(long) | Sets the anchor at an absolute sequence number. |
| FromStart | Sets the anchor at the start of the time series. |
| From(DateTimeOffset) | Sets the anchor at an absolute time. |
| FromLast(long) | Sets the anchor at a relative offset before the end of the time series. For value range queries, count is the number of original events. For edit range queries, count is the number of events of any type. |
| FromLast(TimeSpan) | Sets the anchor at a relative time before the timestamp of the last event of the time series. |
An anchor point can be before the start or after the end of the time series.
There are nine ways to specify a span.
| Span | Meaning |
|---|---|
| To(long) | The range ends at an absolute sequence number. The sequence argument may be before or after the anchor. |
| ToStart | The range ends at the start of the time series. |
| To(DateTimeOffset) | The range ends at an absolute time. The timeSpan argument may be before or after the anchor. |
| Next(long) | The range ends at an event that is a relative number of events after the anchor. For value range queries, count is the number of original events. For edit range queries, count is the number of events of any type. |
| Next(TimeSpan) | The range ends at an event that is a relative time after the anchor. |
| Previous(long) | The range ends at an event that is a relative number of events before the anchor. For value range queries, count is the number of original events. For edit range queries, count is the number of events of any type. |
| Previous(TimeSpan) | The range ends at an event that is a relative time before the anchor. |
| UntilLast(long) | The range ends at an event that is a relative number of events before the end of the time series. For value range queries, count is the number of original events. For edit range queries, count is the number of events of any type. |
| UntilLast(TimeSpan) | The range ends at an event that is a relative time before the timestamp of the last event of the time series. |
A span can specify an end point that is before the start or after the end of the time series.
If the span specifies an end point after the anchor, the range includes the first event at or following the anchor and ends at the last event at or preceding the end point. If the span specifies an end point before the anchor, the range includes the first event at or preceding the anchor and ends at the last event at or after the end point.
RangeQuery builder methods - those that return another RangeQuery - can be applied in any order with the following exceptions:
Each method overrides some configuration of the RangeQuery to which it is applied, as summarized in the following table.
| Builder method | Operator type | Overridden configuration |
|---|---|---|
| ForValues | Value range | Overrides the existing query type to create a new value range query. Overrides the existing view range with a new view range that selects the entire time series. The existing edit range is copied unchanged. |
| ForEdits | Value range | Overrides the existing query type to create a new edit range query that includes all edits. Overrides the existing view range with a new view range that selects the entire time series. The existing edit range is copied unchanged. |
| EditRange | Edit range | Overrides the existing edit range with a new edit range that selects the entire time series. The existing view range is copied unchanged. |
| LatestEdits, AllEdits | Edit range | Overrides the existing edit range with a new edit range that selects the entire time series. The existing view range is copied unchanged. |
| From(long), FromStart, FromLast(long) | Anchor | Overrides the anchor of the current range. |
| To(long), ToStart, Next(long), Previous(long), UntilLast(long) | Span | Overrides the span of the current range. |
| Limit(long) | Limit | Overrides the limit. |
| As{TNewValue} | Query value type | Overrides the query value type. |

| IRangeQuery<TValue> PushTechnology.ClientInterface.Client.Features.TimeSeries.IRangeQuery< TValue >.AllEdits | ( | ) |
Returns a copy of this IRangeQuery{TValue} configured to perform an edit range query with the edit range that selects all edits in the entire time series.
This operator can only be applied to edit range queries. The default query returned by ITimeSeries.RangeQuery is a value range query. The ForEdits operator can be used to create an edit range query from a value range query.
Operator type: edit range
| InvalidOperationException | The current range query is not an edit range query. |
| IRangeQuery<TNewValue> PushTechnology.ClientInterface.Client.Features.TimeSeries.IRangeQuery< TValue >.As< TNewValue > | ( | ) |
