Search API sorting on DateField using datetime

[Bradley Mclain]

I currently have a service which sorts the data by various datetimes using the search API. This works fine in the development server however once deployed to app-engine the results are no longer correct.

When viewing the indexes using the admin console I can see that in the development server it stores the full datetime object but when deployed to app engine it only has the date portion of the datetime.

Is this intentional? Is there a way to make it store the full datetime? Have I missed something?

Regards,

Brad

Search API supports DateField with no time. If you need sorting by datetime values, conversion between datetime and NumberField (seconds since ...) would be a work-around for your use-case.

 Yes this is the work-around that I have been using. I think the documentation should be updated to reflect this, the python one still says:

• Date Field - a date object with year/month/day and optional time

Also the development server should really behave in the same way to avoid confusion.
