Date formats

Format Explanation
D+/M+/#YY+

A date. For example, 1/3/05, 23/12/1999, 10/07/40, or 8/5/2012.

If the year is a number less than 40, it is read as a year in the 2000s. If the year is a number between 40 and 99, it is read as a year in the 1900s. For example, 01/02/01 is read as 1 February 2001, and 01/03/40 is read as 1 March 1940.

HH:NN:SS D+/M+/#YY+

A time and date. For example, 10:30:45 1/3/05, 18:55:00 23/12/99, 01:23:45 10/07/1940, or 07:15:00 8/5/2012.

If the year is a number less than 40, it is read as a year in the 2000s. If the year is a number between 40 and 99, it is read as a year in the 1900s. For example, 01/02/01 is read as 1 February 2001, and 01/03/40 is read as 1 March 1940.

HH:NN:SS D+/M+/#YY+ #ADBC

A time and date with a time period. For example, 10:30:45 1/3/05 AD, 18:55:00 23/12/99 CE.

For the time period, you can use AD, CE, BC, BCE, or any predefined list of EPOCH indicators.

N

A positive or negative number of days from the current date.

For example, –1 specifies yesterday's date, 0 specifies today's date, 1 specifies tomorrow's date, 2 specifies two days from now (the current date plus two), and so on.

Ns

A positive or negative number of seconds from now.

For example, –60s specifies one minute ago, –900s specifies 15 minutes ago, –3600s specifies one hour ago and so on. 60s specifies one minute from now, 900s specifies 15 minutes from now, 3600s specifies one hour from now, and so on.

Ne

Epoch seconds (seconds since 1 January 1970).

For example, 1012345000e specifies 22:56:40 on 29 January 2002.

Note: IDOL Server uses the local time zone to match epoch values. For example, if your local time zone is GMT-6, 1012345000e is 03:56:40 on 29 January 2002. If you use this value as the beginning of a range, IDOL Server retrieves documents after 03:56:40 on 29 January 2002.
