Calculate a weekly mean

This page documents an earlier version of InfluxDB OSS. InfluxDB 3 Core is the latest stable version.

This example uses NOAA water sample data.

This example calculates a temperature weekly mean and stores it in a separate bucket.

The sample query performs the following operations:

  • Uses filter() to select records with the average_temperature measurement.
  • Uses range() to define the start time.
  • Uses aggregateWindow() to group records by week and compute the mean.
  • Sends the weekly mean to a new bucket (weekly_means).
option task = {
  name: "weekly-means",
  every: 1w,
}

from(bucket: "noaa")
  |> filter(fn: (r) => r._measurement == "average_temperature")
  |> range(start: 2019-09-01T11:24:00Z)
  |> aggregateWindow(every:  1w, fn: mean)
  |> to(bucket: "weekly_means")

InfluxDB Docker latest tag changing to InfluxDB 3 Core

On February 3, 2026, the latest tag for InfluxDB Docker images will point to InfluxDB 3 Core. To avoid unexpected upgrades, use specific version tags in your Docker deployments.

If using Docker to install and run InfluxDB, the latest tag will point to InfluxDB 3 Core. To avoid unexpected upgrades, use specific version tags in your Docker deployments. For example, if using Docker to run InfluxDB v2, replace the latest version tag with a specific version tag in your Docker pull command–for example:

docker pull influxdb:2
