How to customize date facets?

[@@]

Sorry for asking so many questions :P

I tried to look into the source code, but didn't got any clue.

Is there any way to customize date facets my self?

for example:

Past hour

Past 24 hours

Past week

Past year

It think you want to have a look at this page: http://haystacksearch.org/docs/searchqueryset_api.html#date-facet

If you want to see how this works in code, the Xapian backend tests might shed some light on it.  Line #230 in xapian_tests/tests/xapian_backend.py

Hi Diavid,

Thanks for the quick reply :)

I've looked the api document, i thought i may haven't make my question clear.

It seems that the gap is fixed according to the document.

However what i want is not a equal difference date list but a customized date list.

As the previous example. 

Past hour

Past 24 hours

Past week

Past year

the start date is current date - 1 hour, no end date.  But the gap is not fixed, the first two is 23 hours, the second two is 6 days the last tow is about 358 days. 

What i'm looking for is a method that i can direct pass a list of all those facets date.

I hope i've made my self clear :)

Askfor,


For the purposes of the mailing list (though you already know this
answer), my current recommended solution in this situation can be seen
at http://github.com/toastdriven/django-haystack/issues#issue/140/comment/82513.
In essence, we're limited by what the engines can do, so I'd recommend
using three regular ``SearchQuerySet``s instead and using ``.count()``
on them to simulate the faceting information.
