I can find no documentation anywhere for the desired format for date fields in riak search.
I've looked at Lucene documentation thinking that it should be the same. From there I can see that Lucene made a significant transition at some point with respect to dates, but the documentation http://lucene.apache.org/java/3_0_3/api/all/org/apache/lucene/document/DateTools.html#dateToString(java.util.Date,%20org.apache.lucene.document.DateTools.Resolution) seems to suggest that the format is yyyyMMddHHmmssSSS. I tried this, but no joy. I've tried using seconds since 1970, but at best this is only a stop gap because I have dates before 1970 that I need to consider. I also tried using a standard field, hoping that lexographical ranges would work for me. Alas, I think the tokenizer is not indexing my dates because they don't look like useful things to index. I am grateful for any hints.
