How to filter query in solr by date?

Question

In my SOLR there is date field(published_date) and values are in this format \"2012-09-26T10:08:09.123Z\"

How I can search by simple input like \"2012-09-10\" i

Answer 1

If you want to get last week publications you can do somehting like:

&fq=published_date:[NOW-7DAY/DAY TO NOW]

But if you want a concrete date you must do it in the SOLR date format:

&fq=published_date:[2013-07-17T00:00:00Z TO NOW]

Last but not least.

• use [ ] for inclusive ranges
• use { } for exclusive ranges
• you can mix them like [ } for inclusive - exclusive and vice versa { ]

I hope that helps
