Offset parameter?

[samunderwood]

One more question if that’s okay. Is it possible to add something to offset what month of data you want to pull?

For example, you can use months=2 to pull the past two months. But if I want to compare to 6 months ago I have to pull 6 months of data rather than just being able to specify I want 1 months worth of data from 6 months ago.

Maybe something like an ?offset=6 parameter or something would be handy?

Then I could do something like:

https://api.crux.run/v1/summary/overview/?domain=www.google.com&months=1

For last month and then:

https://api.crux.run/v1/summary/overview/?domain=www.google.com&months=1&offset=6

For 6 months ago.

Hmmm…. one of the reasons why those queries are so quick is because it actually doesn't look at the month at all :) It just uses the `months` input as an int to grab from the array (e.g. when you pass `months` = 6 internally we say "give me data from indices 0,1,2,3,4,5"). Is there an issue with pull multiple months and then trimming client side (other than the obvious waste of bandwidth :) ) So it's certainly not *impossible* but what's the use case that we can't satisfy today ? (also bulk pulling data is materially faster than polling … e.g. getting 6 months of data at once is ~ the same time as getting 1 month) Sent via Superhuman ( https://sprh.mn/[email protected] )
