Neal Sidhwaney commented on SOLR-13645:
---------------------------------------
Thanks Houston, I appreciate the kind comments and review. I think before you
spend any more time on this, it's probably worth it to also look at
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13931, which I found after I pinged
this issue. Since that points to a deprecation of analytics, I'd rather not
use yours and the projects time if it ends up being removed! It's not a big
deal to me either way. Thanks again.

> It's helpful when running analytics to be able to do manipulation on dates
> such as extracting month/day/year, converting to th week of year, etc, and
> other formatting as many existing libraries provide. I have a patch going
> through final testing that will add this to the analytcs library.
> One thing I'm sort of amibvialent about is that it exposes that we use Java
> date parsing in the analytics function, because the syntax is the same format
> string that SimpleDateFormat accepts. Ideally there would be an abstraction
> between the analytics language and what's used on the backend to implement
> it. On the other hand, implementing a syntax for time/date formatting is
> something that's been done many many times before, and this is not the only
> place where Java date particulars show through. It would be good to revisit
> this at a later time.
