// Set the retention to be five days
parameter retain: days(5);

Parameters

d: Days to convert to seconds

Returns

Number of seconds represented by d days.

float64 days(float64 days)

// Set the timeout to be one and a half days
parameter timeout: days(1.5);

Parameters

days: Days to convert to seconds

Returns

Number of seconds represented by d days.

float64 hours(int32 h)

Convert whole hours to seconds as a float64. This is useful for readable values in a time based window definitions or float64 operator parameters that represent seconds. For example:

// and five minute trigger policy
window IN: sliding, time(hours(2)), time(minutes(5));

Parameters

h: Hours to convert to seconds

Returns

Number of seconds represented by h hours.

float64 hours(float64 hours)
