I have searched for a while now and not really finding a clear enough answer to understand how to do it.
I have chart data saved in MongoDB on a minute time-base (Unix timestamp). Now I understand that if I want to visualize the chart in hourly or daily based time I need to aggregate the data, but I am not fully understanding what needs to be done.
I want to create groups of 1 hour and 1 day, those need to contain the last record of its timeframe. and then does the aggregation need to be done once and it saves to DB? or every time I query it. and how do I setup the query in mongoose?
Here a example of my collection chart data
collection:[
{
time: 1649083392,
volume: '20384.28',
open: 444.42,
close: 444.56,
high: 444.76,
low: 444.36
},
{
time: 1649083448,
volume: '20384.28',
open: 444.42,
close: 444.56,
high: 444.76,
low: 444.36
},
{
time: 1649083501,
volume: '20384.28',
open: 444.42,
close: 444.56,
high: 444.76,
low: 444.36
}
]
lets say I need a chart per day timeframe. there are 1440 minutes in a day.
I first need to make a group per day to add up volume per day and then project the last item for each day. it should project the volume per day and the last item of the day for each day.
Hope someone can explain me a bit how this works. Thanks.

Sorry. so I made a mistake.

This is an actual example of my document, I need to aggregate over the chart array. and using the existing code I cant get it to work.

SO, I still had a problem with this because the data in needed to aggregate is inside array of a document.
I found the $unwind function to solve this.
First I use $match to make sure I only get the document I want to aggregate, Unwind the chart array which I want to aggregate. then add a new field to convert UNIX timestamp to sort by timestamp. after that I can sort by timestamp and make a group of the specified time interval. add up the volume per group and make a last sort. in the $mod: 900 stands for seconds, this is where I can specify time interval of groups.
Thanks to @YuTing and @Calvin Coomer I got the perfect solution now.

I Know That this has already been answered but here is my take by flooring the timestamp to the interval and then grouping the data based on the timestampBoundary
