Recommended approach for date ranges with BoboBrowse

[Rob Cecil]

Hello,

What is the recommended way that I should set up a field to support date range facets? The date ranges have to be dynamic to support semantically "today", "yesterday", "last week", etc. I have currently tried using regular Field instances in the document, and converting my source dates to the day format (yyyyMMdd), but I am getting an empty collection of range facets back after the query. This is the sixth facet I have added and have mapped successfully other fields/facets, including two numeric fields using NumericField to support integer range facets.

Thanks

You would have a implement a dynamic facet handler for this, take a look at:

Great idea. Is there some unit test or other sample code that demonstrates how to set this up (usage)?

Thanks

John,

Also, why can't I just model the field like a regular numeric range, and use RangeFacetHandler? I'm already using two other fields that are built using the NumericField, and RangeFacetHandler.... Why can't I just model the data like 20121016, etc?
