When doing comparison operations on vectors, filtering
sometimes gets in the way and you have to go to a fair bit of
effort to workaround it in order to always return a result.
The 'bool' modifier instead of filtering returns 0/1 depending
on the result of the compairson.
This is also a prerequisite to removing plain scalar/scalar comparisons,
as it maintains the current behaviour under a new syntax.
`keep_common` is more in line with the function name
`drop_common_labels()` terminology-wise, and also more in line with
`group_left`/`group_right` (no `...ing` verb suffix).
We could also go the full way and call it `keep_common_labels`. That
would have the benefit of being even more consistent with the function
`drop_common_labels()` and would be more explanatory, but it also seems
quite long.
This commit adds parsing of time series description to the exisiting
query language parser. Time series descriptions are defined by a
metric followed by a sequence of values.
This copies the evaluation logic from the current rules/ package.
The new engine handles the execution process from query string to final result.
It provides query timeout and cancellation and general flexibility for
future changes.
functions.go: Add evaluation implementation. Slight changes to in/out data but
not to the processing logic.
quantile.go: No changes.
analyzer.go: No changes.
engine.go: Actually new part. Mainly consists of evaluation methods
which were not changed.
setup_test.go: Copy of rules/helpers_test.go to setup test storage.
promql_test.go: Copy of rules/rules_test.go.
This commit creates a (so far unused) package. It contains the a custom
lexer/parser for the query language.
ast.go: New AST that interacts well with the parser.
lex.go: Custom lexer (new).
lex_test.go: Lexer tests (new).
parse.go: Custom parser (new).
parse_test.go: Parser tests (new).
functions.go: Changed function type, dummies for parser testing (barely changed/dummies).
printer.go: Adapted from rules/ and adjusted to new AST (mostly unchanged, few additions).
