Class Aligner (2.8.0)

Aligner(value)

The Aligner specifies the operation that will be applied to the data points in each alignment period in a time series. Except for ALIGN_NONE, which specifies that no operation be applied, each alignment operation replaces the set of data values in each alignment period with a single value: the result of applying the operation to the data values. An aligned time series has a single data value at the end of each alignment_period.

An alignment operation can change the data type of the values, too. For example, if you apply a counting operation to boolean values, the data value_type in the original time series is BOOLEAN, but the value_type in the aligned result is INT64.
