Description

The Summon API has the ability to facet by date in a fairly flexible way, and the native Summon interface has a complex interface control to make use of this functionality. VuFind currently does not make use of date facets, but we should add a mechanism to allow it.

Basic date range functionality for Summon (as well as the regular Solr interface) was implemented in r3088 and is turned on by default. If anyone wants to replace this with something more elaborate, I would be happy to receive contributions, so feel free to open a new ticket and attach a patch... but the existing basic functionality is good enough for me to feel comfortable closing this ticket for now.
