Since funcs `ParseDuration` and `ParseTimeMsec` are used in vlogs,
vmalert, victoriametrics and other components, importing promutils only
for this reason makes them to export irrelevant
`vm_rows_invalid_total{type="prometheus"}` metric.
This change removes `vm_rows_invalid_total{type="prometheus"}` metric
from /metrics page for these components.

(cherry picked from commit 63f6ac3ff8)
For example, `field:~".+"`, `field:~".*"` or `field:""`
Replace such filters to faster ones. For example, `field:~".*"` is replaced with `*`,
while `field:~".+"` is replaced with `field:*`.
These filters can be used for selecting logs where one field value is less than another field value.
These filter complement `<=` and `<` filters for constant literals.
(cherry picked from commit 30974e7f3f)
- `contains_any` selects logs with fields containing at least one word/phrase from the provided list.
The provided list can be generated by a subquery.
- `contains_all` selects logs with fields containing all the words and phrases from the provided list.
The provided list can be generated by a subquery.
_time:<=max_time filter must include logs with timestamps matching max_time.
For example, _time:<=2025-02-24Z must include logs with timestamps until the end of February 24, 2025.
Examples:
_time:>=2025-02-24Z selects logs with timestamps bigger or equal to 2025-02-24 UTC
_time:>1d selects logs with timestamps older than one day comparing to the current time
This simplifies writing queries with _time filters.
See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#time-filter
The purpose of extra filters ( https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/querying/#extra-filters )
is to limit the subset of logs, which can be queried. For example, it is expected that all the queries
with `extra_filters={tenant=123}` can access only logs, which contain `123` value for the `tenant` field.
Previously this wasn't the case, since the provided extra filters weren't applied to subqueries.
For example, the following query could be used to select all the logs outside `tenant=123`, for any `extra_filters` arg:
* | union({tenant!=123})
This commit fixes this by propagating extra filters to all the subqueries.
While at it, this commit also properly propagates [start, end] time range filter from HTTP querying APIs
into all the subqueries, since this is what most users expect. This behaviour can be overriden on per-subquery
basis with the `options(ignore_global_time_filter=true)` option - see https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#query-options
Also properly apply apply optimizations across all the subqueries. Previously the optimizations at Query.optimize()
function were applied only to the top-level query.
logger.Fatalf("BUG: ...") complicates investigating the bug, since it doesn't show the call stack,
which led to the bug. So it is better to consistently use logger.Panicf("BUG: ...") for logging programming bugs.
This is done via 'options(concurrency=N)' prefix for the query.
For example, the following query is executed on at most 4 CPU cores:
options(concurrency=4) _time:1d | count_uniq(user_id)
This allows reducing RAM and CPU usage at the cost of longer query execution times,
since by default every query is executed in parallel on all the available CPU cores.
See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#query-options
Also always initialize Query.timestamp with the timestamp from the lexer.
This should avoid potential problems with relative timestamps inside inner queries.
For example, the `_time:1h` filter in the following query is correctly executed
relative to the current timestamp:
foo:in(_time:1h | keep foo)
This filter can be used when debugging and exploring logs in order to understand better
which value types are used for storing the particular log fields.
The `value_type` filter complements `block_stats` pipe.
While at at, allow passing an array of string values per each JSON entry at extra_filters and extra_stream_filters.
For example, `extra_filters={"foo":["bar","baz"]}` is converted into `foo:in("bar", "baz")` extra filter,
while `extra_stream_fitlers={"foo":["bar","baz"]}` is converted into `{foo=~"bar|baz"}` extra filter.
This should simplify creating faceted search when multiple values per a single log field must be selected.
This is needed for https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/7365#issuecomment-2447964259
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5542
Such log fields do not give any useful information during logs' exploration.
They just clutter the output of the `facets` pipe. So it is better to drop such fields by default.
If these fields are needed, then `keep_const_fields` option can be added to `facets` pipe.
The max_value_len query arg allows controlling the maximum length of values
per every log field. If the length is exceeded, then the log field is dropped
from the results, since it contains incomplete (misleading) set of most frequently seen field values.
(cherry picked from commit 48540ac409)
This endpoint returns the most frequent values per each field seen in the selected logs.
This endpoint is going to be used by VictoriaLogs web UI for faceted search.
(cherry picked from commit 740548ccfc)
The `first N by (field)` pipe is a shorthand to `sort by (field) limit N`,
while the `last N by (field)` pipe is a shorthand to `sort by (field) desc limit N`.
While at it, add support for partitioning sort results by log groups and applying
individual limit per each group.
For example, the following query returns up to 3 logs per each host with the biggest value
for the `request_duration` field:
_time:5m | last 3 by (request_duration) partition by (host)
This query is equivalent to the following one:
_time:5m | sort by (request_duration) desc limit 3 partition by (host)
Automatically add the 'partition by (_time)` into `sort`, `first` and `last` pipes
used in the query to `/select/logsql/stats_query_range` API.
This is needed for https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/7699
This eliminates possible bugs related to forgotten Query.Optimize() calls.
This also allows removing optimize() function from pipe interface.
While at it, drop filterNoop inside filterAnd.
(cherry picked from commit 66b2987f49)
1. Verify if field in [fields
pipe](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victorialogs/logsql/#fields-pipe)
exists. If not, it generates a metric with illegal float value "" for
prometheus metrics protocol.
2. check if multiple time range filters produce conflicted query time
range, for instance:
```
query: _time: 5m | stats count(),
start:2024-10-08T10:00:00.806Z,
end: 2024-10-08T12:00:00.806Z,
time: 2024-10-10T10:02:59.806Z
```
must give no result due to invalid final time range.

Improperly written pipes could be silently parsed as filter pipe.
For example, the following query:
* | by (x)
was silently parsed to:
* | filter "by" x
It is better to return error, so the user could identify and fix invalid pipe
instead of silently executing invalid query with `filter` pipe.
(cherry picked from commit 7b475ed95d)
Previously the phrase filter with `!` was treated unexpectedly.
For example, `foo!bar` filter was treated at `foo AND NOT bar`,
while most users expect that it matches "foo!bar" phrase.
This commit aligns with users' expectations.
Previously the original timestamp was used in the copied query, so _time:duration filters
were applied to the original time range: (timestamp-duration ... timestamp]. This resulted
in stopped live tailing, since new logs have timestamps bigger than the original time range.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/7028
This pipe is useful for debugging purposes when the number of processed blocks must be calculated for the given query:
<query> | blocks_count
This helps detecting the root cause of query performance slowdown in cases like https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/7070
