- Returns the snapshot for a specified number of book levels as a single tick with multiple field groups corresponding to book levels. - Parameters
- running (bool, default=False) – - See Aggregation buckets guide to see examples of how this parameter works. - Specifies if the aggregation will be calculated as a sliding window. - runningand- bucket_intervalparameters determines when new buckets are created.- running= True- aggregation will be calculated in a sliding window. - bucket_interval= N (N > 0)- Window size will be N. Output tick will be generated when tick “enter” window (arrival event) and when “exit” window (exit event) 
- bucket_interval= 0- Left boundary of window will be set to query start time. For each tick aggregation will be calculated in the interval [start_time; tick_t] from query start time to the tick’s timestamp (inclusive). 
 
- running= False (default)- buckets partition the [query start time, query end time) interval into non-overlapping intervals of size - bucket_interval(with the last interval possibly of a smaller size). If- bucket_intervalis set to 0 a single bucket for the entire interval is created.- Note that in non-running mode OneTick unconditionally divides the whole time interval into specified number of buckets. It means that you will always get this specified number of ticks in the result, even if you have less ticks in the input data. 
 - Default: False 
- bucket_interval (int or float or - Operationor- OnetickParameteror- symbol parameteror datetime offset object, default=0) –- Determines the length of each bucket (units depends on - bucket_units).- If - Operationof bool type is passed, acts as- bucket_end_condition.- Bucket interval can also be set as a float value if - bucket_unitsis set to seconds. Note that values less than 0.001 (1 millisecond) are not supported.- Bucket interval can be set via some of the datetime offset objects: - otp.Milli,- otp.Second,- otp.Minute,- otp.Hour,- otp.Day,- otp.Month. In this case you could omit setting- bucket_unitsparameter.- Bucket interval can also be set with integer - OnetickParameteror- symbol parameter.
- bucket_time (Literal['start', 'end'], default=end) – - Control output timestamp. - start - the timestamp assigned to the bucket is the start time of the bucket. 
- end - the timestamp assigned to the bucket is the end time of the bucket. 
 
- bucket_units (Optional[Literal['seconds', 'days', 'months', 'flexible']], default=None) – - Set bucket interval units. - By default, if - bucket_unitsand- bucket_end_conditionnot specified, set to seconds. If- bucket_end_conditionspecified, then- bucket_unitsset to flexible.- If set to flexible then - bucket_end_conditionmust be set.- Note that seconds bucket unit doesn’t take into account daylight-saving time of the timezone, so you may not get expected results when using, for example, 24 * 60 * 60 seconds as bucket interval. In such case use days bucket unit instead. See example in - onetick.py.agg.sum().
- bucket_end_condition (condition, default=None) – - An expression that is evaluated on every tick. If it evaluates to “True”, then a new bucket is created. This parameter is only used if - bucket_unitsis set to “flexible”.- Also can be set via - bucket_intervalparameter by passing- Operationobject.
- end_condition_per_group (bool, default=False) – - Controls application of - bucket_end_conditionin groups.- end_condition_per_group= True- bucket_end_conditionis applied only to the group defined by- group_by
- end_condition_per_group= False- bucket_end_conditionapplied across all groups
 - This parameter is only used if - bucket_unitsis set to “flexible”.- When set to True, applies to all bucketing conditions. Useful, for example, if you need to specify - group_by, and you want to group items first, and create buckets after that.
- group_by (list, str or expression, default=None) – When specified, each bucket is broken further into additional sub-buckets based on specified field values. If - Operationis used then GROUP_{i} column is added. Where i is index in group_by list. For example, if Operation is the only element in- group_bylist then GROUP_0 field will be added.
- groups_to_display (Literal['all', 'previous'], default=all) – Specifies for which sub-buckets (groups) ticks should be shown for each bucket interval. By default all groups are shown at the end of each bucket interval. If this parameter is set to event_in_last_bucket, only the groups that received at least one tick within a given bucket interval are shown. 
- max_levels (int, default=None) – Number of order book levels (between 1 and 100_000) that need to be computed. If empty, all levels will be computed. 
- book_uncross_method (Literal['REMOVE_OLDER_CROSSED_LEVELS'], default=None) – When set to “REMOVE_OLDER_CROSSED_LEVELS”, all ask levels that have price lower or equal to the price of a new bid tick get removed from the book, and all bid levels that have price higher or equal to the price of a new ask tick get removed from the book. 
- dq_events_that_clear_book (List[str], default=None) – A list of names of data quality events arrival of which should clear the order book. 
- show_full_detail (bool, default=False) – When set to “true” and if the state key of the input ticks consists of some fields besides PRICE, output ticks will contain all fields from the input ticks for each price level. When set to “false” only PRICE, UPDATE_TIME, SIZE, LEVEL, and BUY_SELL_FLAG fields will be populated. Note: setting this flag to “true” has no effect on a time series that does not have a state key. 
- max_initialization_days (int, default=1) – This parameter specifies how many days back book event processors should go in order to find the latest full state of the book. The query will not go back resulting number of days if it finds initial book state earlier. When book event processors are used after VIRTUAL_OB EP, this parameter should be set to 0. When set, this parameter takes precedence over the configuration parameter BOOKS.MAX_INITIALIZATION_DAYS. 
- state_key_max_inactivity_sec (int, default=None) – If set, specifies in how many seconds after it was added a given state key should be automatically removed from the book. 
- size_max_fractional_digits (int, default=0) – Specifies maximum number of digits after dot in SIZE, if SIZE can be fractional. 
- include_market_order_ticks (bool, default=None) – - If set, market order ticks (they have price NaN) are included into the order book, and are at the order book’s top level. - Default is False.
