I don't understand your solution..., a single field with multiple values or
a field repeating itself several times is the same when it comes to
elasticsearch...

Correct. Each indexed document is a Thread with denormalized fields
about the thread and reply posts. As a solution I was able to add a
field "postDates" which is a collection of java.util.Date objects and
perform a range query on that field.On Nov 13, 3:15 am, Shay Banon kim...@gmail.com wrote:
The document that you index includes a thread, and then several posts? In
this case, you can simply do the range check on the single dataCreated
field. Multiple values in a document for a field can become tricky when
wanting to execute a complex query, against several multiple fields, but
have those constraints only match per "array element" (in which case,
nested docs can help).On Fri, Nov 11, 2011 at 7:46 PM, Shane Witbeck <sh...@digitalsanctum.com

...What's the best way to accomplish doing a date range with multiple
dates defined for each index document? I'm using the Java API.Thanks.
