NAME

       Plucene::Document::DateSerializer - Utility functions for dealing with dates

SYNOPSIS

               use Plucene::Document::DateSerializer
               my $field = Plucene::Document::Field->Text(
                       date => freeze_date(Time::Piece $t)
               );
               $doc->add($field);

DESCRIPTION

       Dates and times in Plucene should be serialized using the "freeze_date" function so that the
       Plucene::Search::DateFilter can filter on them during future searches.

SUBROUTINES

   freeze_date
               my $string = freeze_date(Time::Piece $t)

       This routine, exported by default, turns a "Time::Piece" object into a string in a format expected by
       both Plucene and Lucene.

   thaw_date
               my Time::Piece $t = Plucene::Document::DateSerializer::thaw_date($string)

       This routine is not exported, and is not used by the Plucene core. It is useful for debugging dates, and
       simply reverses the "freeze_date" operation.
