Description

What?

Create a utility service that simplifies execution of basic pivot searches in the backend. It would accept the variable parts of the search (query, pivot field name) and handle the details of building the search, extracting the values from the result rows, and handling errors.

Why?

  • When coding a search for the first time, it is difficult to know which classes to use and how
  • There are multiple instances of these searches in the code base. They are very similar to each other: EventDefinitionAggregator InputDiagnosticService EventAssetRiskAggregator

Your Environment

  • Graylog Version: 6.2

Direction de recherche
Examine the existing classes mentioned in the issue: EventDefinitionAggregator, InputDiagnosticService, EventAssetRiskAggregator to understand the current pivot search implementation patterns. Look at how these classes build searches, extract values, and handle errors. The goal is to create a utility service that encapsulates these common patterns, accepting query and pivot field name as parameters. Check the comments in the issue (7 comments) for any additional guidance or maintainer suggestions. Files to explore: likely in the Java source code under packages related to search or pivot.
