apologies from creating what appears to be a duplicate of this question. I have a dataframe that is shaped more or less like the one below:
df_lenght = 240
df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(df_lenght,2), columns=['a','b'] )
df['datetime'] = pd.date_range('23/06/2017', periods=df_lenght, freq='H')
unique_jobs = ['job1','job2','job3',]
job_id = [unique_jobs for i in range (1, int((df_lenght/len(unique_jobs))+1) ,1) ]
df['job_id'] = sorted( [val for sublist in job_id for val in sublist] )
df.set_index(['job_id','datetime'], append=True, inplace=True)
print(df[:5])
returns:
a b
job_id datetime
0 job1 2017-06-23 00:00:00 -0.067011 -0.516382
1 job1 2017-06-23 01:00:00 -0.174199 0.068693
2 job1 2017-06-23 02:00:00 -1.227568 -0.103878
3 job1 2017-06-23 03:00:00 -0.847565 -0.345161
4 job1 2017-06-23 04:00:00 0.028852 3.111738
I will need to resample df['a']
to derive a daily rolling mean, i.e. apply a .resample('D').mean().rolling(window=2).mean()
.
I have tried two methods:
1 - unstacking and stacking, as recommended here
df.unstack('job_id','datetime').resample('D').mean().rolling(window=2).mean().stack('job_id', 'datetime')
this returns an error
2 - using pd.Grouper
, as recommended here
level_values = df.index.get_level_values
result = df.groupby( [ level_values(i) for i in [0,1] ] + [ pd.Grouper(freq='D', level=2) ] ).mean().rolling(window=2).mean()
this does not return an error but it does not seem to resample/group the df appropriately. Result seems to contain hourly data points, rather than daily:
print(result[:5])
a b
job_id datetime
0 job1 2017-06-23 NaN NaN
1 job1 2017-06-23 0.831609 1.348970
2 job1 2017-06-23 -0.560047 1.063316
3 job1 2017-06-23 -0.641936 -0.199189
4 job1 2017-06-23 0.254402 -0.328190
First let's define a resampler function:
def resampler(x):
return x.set_index('datetime').resample('D').mean().rolling(window=2).mean()
Then, we groupby job_id and apply the resampler function:
df.reset_index(level=2).groupby(level=1).apply(resampler)
Out[657]:
a b
job_id datetime
job1 2017-06-23 NaN NaN
2017-06-24 0.053378 0.004727
2017-06-25 0.265074 0.234081
2017-06-26 0.192286 0.138148
job2 2017-06-26 NaN NaN
2017-06-27 -0.016629 -0.041284
2017-06-28 -0.028662 0.055399
2017-06-29 0.113299 -0.204670
job3 2017-06-29 NaN NaN
2017-06-30 0.233524 -0.194982
2017-07-01 0.068839 -0.237573

Let me know if this is what you are after.
