Use creation time in retention/compression policy #6227

nikkhils · 2023-10-24T12:52:15Z

The retention and compression policies can now use drop_created_before
and compress_created_before arguments respectively to specify chunk
selection using their creation times.

We don't support creation times for CAggs, yet.

Looks good, but wondering if there are tests missing. Can you check that we have enough coverage?

But we are supporting it with normal time? What is the reason for why we cannot support this for the materialized hypertable? (Actually, is it at all possible to create a continuous aggregate table with a non-time columns?)

This is based on initial feedback from Fabrizio, where he said we will need more work with Caggs. So erroring out till we get around to that. AFAIK, it's possible to create CAggs with integer_now support for non-time columns.

I don't see any timescaledb_information views being modified. I guess we should have creation_time in at least timescaledb_information.chunks

Using now() in tests is risky. I realize you are adding a big interval to be on the safe side, but now() has often led to flaky tests. It is easy to miss something.

I would recommend using a constant or a mock now() function which always return a "safe" timestamp. (I think we've used such mock functions in other tests).

We can use timescaledb.current_timestamp_mock but this test will unnecessary become a DEBUG only test case because of that.

That has already been done via an earlier committed patch. Please see commitid: 0b87a06

This one will never be triggered because the callers always check the capacity before calling expand

Like the other functions in this file. This convenience function has been added for the sake of completeness. It might get used later. So, all code cov warnings can be ignored for this function for now.

This doesn't get hit in code coverage because again the callers do additional checks elsewhere early on for a valid now_func

Code coverage is now much better with additional test cases added

On nit. Otherwise LGTM.

FWIW, "dropping data created before" is kind of misleading because data can be inserted into a chunk long after it is created. Actually this applies to the previous message as well.

Maybe we should just take the opportunity to tweak this message to "dropping chunks ...."

The retention and compression policies can now use drop_created_before and compress_created_before arguments respectively to specify chunk selection using their creation times. We don't support creation times for CAggs, yet.

Use creation time in retention/compression policy

02173a5

The retention and compression policies can now use drop_created_before and compress_created_before arguments respectively to specify chunk selection using their creation times. We don't support creation times for CAggs, yet.
