date_bin_hopping function - Materialize

date_bin_hopping returns every "binned" value:

Greater than or equal to the source timestamp minus width
Less than or equal to the source timestamp
Where the bin's stride is equal to hop

date_bin_hopping provides a primitive operation to express what are referred to as "hopping windows" in other systems.

Parameter	Type	Description
hop	`interval`	Define bins of this width.
width	`interval`	Produce an "oldest" bin at the equivalent to `date_bin(hop, source + hop - width)`.
source	`timestamp`, `timestamp with time zone`	Determine this value's bins; produce a "newest" bin at the equivalent to `date_bin(hop, source)`.
origin	Must be the same as source	Align bins to this value. If not provided, defaults to the Unix epoch.

Return value

date_bin_hopping returns the same type as source.

Details

origin and source cannot be more than 2^63 nanoseconds apart.
hop and width cannot contain any years or months, but e.g. can exceed 30 days.
hop and width only support values between 1 and 9,223,372,036 seconds.
