Hi,

i want to make a filter on a 'date and time' attribute (the attribute is 'mydate' in the class 'myclass') in my fetch, i would like to filter only with the month, for example '01' (to the month of january) :

{def $evenements = fetch( 'content', 'list', hash( 'parent_node_id', 125, 'attribute_filter', array(array('myclass/mydate','=','01')) ) )}

but it's not possible like this, i don't know how to filter only with the month...

Thanks
Anthony

Hi Anthony,

AFAIK, the date time datatype stores data as timestamps. In order to accomplish what you're trying to do, I think you need to convert the first and last day of the month to timestamps, and then fetch objects where the date is higher than the first timestamp and lower than the second.

Hi,

I have a similiar problem with the usage of attribute_filter. I want to get the next 5 items of my event content class from today on. I tested the following statement without success:

{def timestamp=maketime() $events=fetch( 'content','tree',hash( 'parent_node_id', $parentnodeid,attribute_filter, array( $idcontentclass, '>=', $timestamp ),class_filter_type, include,class_filter_array, array('events'),'limit', 5))}

I don't understand how to use attribute_filter. Can somebody give me a tip?

Hi,

{def 
	$timestamp=maketime()
	$events=fetch( 'content','tree',hash( 
				parent_node_id, $parentnodeid,
				attribute_filter, array( array( $idcontentattributeclass, '>=', $timestamp )),
				class_filter_type, 'include',
				class_filter_array, array('events'),
				'limit', 5
				)
			)
}
 

{def} need a $ before variable timestamp no ?
