One small detail - I just realized I've been doing JSON faceting and the wiki refers to old-school faceting. Old-school faceting indeed does work but the problem is the facet is ultimately one of a whole tree of stats I'm collecting, so JSON facet is far more convenient for my use case (I don't think I can even do what I'm doing with old facets). Why would daterangefield work with the old faceting system and not the new?

I'm trying to do a facet based off a DateRangeField and I'm hitting this error: Error from server at http://172.20.141.150:8983/solr/instock_au_shard1_replica0: Unable to range facet on field:sku_history.date_range{type=daterange,properties=indexed,stored,omitTermFreqAndPositions} Now I read through FacetRange.java and it seems like only TrieFields are accepted, while DateRangeField is a spatial type, so I suppose that makes sense. However, elsewhere in the codebase under DateCalc (which is essentially the same set of restrictions) it says: if (! (field.getType() instanceof TrieDateField) ) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("SchemaField must use field type extending TrieDateField or DateRangeField"); } Is this for some reason assuming that DateRangeField is a subclass of TrieDateField (it isn't)? I also see a mention here of someone doing a facet on a DateRangeField and having it work: https://wiki.apache.org/solr/DateRangeField In his case, his daterangefield is multivalued and it seemed to work for him - mine is simpler than that yet it doesn't work. I don't really understand what we're doing differently that matters, and reading the codebase, it really doesn't seem like this was ever possible - but that comment under DateCalc makes me wonder. If we could facet on the daterangefield, it would be very helpful, so any pointers on how to do that would be welcome. -- Steve WGSN (www.wgsn.com) is the world’s leading trend authority for creative thinkers in over 94 countries.
