Hi,

Let's say I'm doing the following date ranges aggregation:

{  
"aggs": {  
"foo": {  
"date\_range": {  
"script": "??",  
"ranges": [  
{"from": "2014-01-01", "to": "2014-02-01"},  
{"from": "2014-02-01", "to": "2014-03-01"}  
]  
}  
}  
}  
}

Is there any way I can get access to the range context inside the script?  
In this case, I'd like to be able to have access to the "from" or "to"  
values, when the range is executed. I've tried to use "from", "ctx.from",  
"context.from", but it does not seem to work :(.

Thanks
