: I'm using Solr 4.10.0.I'm trying to figure out how to use the TZ : param.I've noticed that i have to use date math in order for this to : work,also I've got to use rounding when I query Solr in order to use the : TZ param.
I'm having trouble understanding your question. The TZ param, as documented, only affects what TimeZone is used for the purpose of rounding dates -- so of course, if you aren't using rounding then the TZ param does nothing. And since rounding is a form of date math, then yes it's also true you must use date math for TZ to have any meaning. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Working+with+Dates : The issue is that when i query I'd like to get recent hours for my : search, something like the query for last 1 hour. The Date Math : supports it but the TZ works only if my rounding is DAY or more, and i : need MINUTE rounding for my query. TZ affects what timezone is used when defining the concept of a "day" for the purposes of rounding by day -- if you used a TimeZone like TZ=Asia/Tehran you'll see the correct rounding even though that timezone is +04:30 relative to UTC. : I wanted to know is it possible to use TZ feature when I'm using MINUTE rounding? : : My query looks like this: : q=*:*fq=realDate:[NOW/MINUTE-3HOURS TO NOW/MINUTE-1MINUTES]&rows=20&NOW=1433777301000&facet.range=realDate&facet=true&facet.range.start=NOW/MINUTE-3HOURS&facet.range.end=NOW/MINUTE-1MINUTES&facet.range.gap=%2B10MINUTE&TZ=GMT : <field name="realDate" type="tdate" indexed="true" stored="true" required="false" multiValued="false" /> You've given an example of a query you are currently using -- but you haven't given us any of hte other info we really need ot try and understand your question (ie: what do some of the documents you've indexed look like? what results do you get from your query? what do you see in those results that isn't matching your goal? what documents are matched by your query (or by a facet) that you don't want to be matched? what documents aren't matched that you want to be matched? The best thing to do would be if you could just describe for us in words what you want, and give a specific example -- such as "If it's 4:37PM in my local timezone Foo/Bar, i want to send a query to Solr and have it return results based on teh time range X to Y with facets like ...." -Hoss http://www.lucidworks.com/
