This module lets you define global date ranges that can be used to filter
your values in tree views.

It also provides a mixin model for developers that extends the model's search
view so that date ranges can be search as any relational field.

Installation
============

The addon use the daterange method from postgres. This method is supported as of postgresql 9.2

Configuration
=============

For regular usage, see `Usage` below. This section is to clarify optional
functionality to developers.

To configure a model to use the Many2one style search field, make the model
inherit from `date.range.search.mixin`:

.. code-block::

class AccountMove(models.Model):
_name = "account.move"
_inherit = ["account.move", "date.range.search.mixin"]

This will make a `Period` field show up in the search view:

:alt: Date range Many2one search field

By default, the mixin works on the `date` field. If you want the mixin to work
on a field with a different name, you can set a property on your model:

.. code-block::

_date_range_search_field = "invoice_date"

Usage
=====

* Go to Settings > Technical > Date ranges > Date Range Types where

* Your date ranges are now available in the search filter for any date or datetime fields

Date range types are proposed as a filter operator

Once a type is selected, date ranges of this type are porposed as a filter value

And the dates specified into the date range are used to filter your result.
