I agree with Erick,
converting dates into String is really a bad idea.
This "custom component" makes me curious, I assume you have :
Front End - Search-api -Solr or something similar.
If you want the front end to send the partial date, then the search-api can
handle the conversion.
If you want the front end to do the conversion, do at that time.
I can't see any problem in that, part if you are manually using Solr
without any middle layer ( which would surprise me) .
Can you give us more explanation ?
This "custom component" sounds me wrong, how are you currently using solr ?
Cheers
