In order to fix the bug #11481, I would like to propose that we create additional methods in SolrSearchServiceBean to return sorted start and end dates of dataverses and datasets. Since these fields are used as strings in solr-query, sorting them correctly in the display is otherwise very difficult.

I have also seen that there are other similar issues, like #8813

But perhaps I have overlooked something and there could be an easier way of solving the bug?
Thanks in advance

@Murat Oezcan hi! One thought is that we have a meeting we call "tech hours" every Tuesday. If you're available tomorrow (probably a bit late for you, since it's 3pm Boston time) perhaps you could join.

Yes, from #8813 you can navigate to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend/issues/278 which is where @Dimitri Szabo opened an issue for the new React SPA frontend.

We have a preference for making UI changes in the new SPA instead of the JSF UI, which will be deprecated some day.

Also, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that @Vera Clemens recently implemented the possibility of real Solr date types in #10887.

This allows us to do range queries like exampleDateField:[2000-11-01 TO 2014-12-01].

this sounds real good. would certainly solve my problem as far as i can tell. when do you think there will be a version we could try out? there are a few other GUI related issues i have been asked to solve, but with this new feature, probably most of them will become obsolete.

If you want to play around with the new SPA you can do so at https://beta.dataverse.org/spa/

It's deployed every time we merge a pull request. See .github/workflows/deploy-beta-testing.yml at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-frontend

Does 3pm Boston time today work for you? If that's too late we can try to figure out an earlier time (but probably not today).

3pm Boston time would in general work for me- just today i have another appointment in the evening. perhaps next week, if this is a repeating meeting?

Yes, it's a repeating meeting but next Tuesday is a holiday here (Veteran's Day).

ok, i will reserve the week after that one in this case.
