Posts by Date Range

Route Name

Posts by Date Range

Route URL

/api/posts/between

Description & Usage

This route allows you to discover posts that were reported/recorded in a specific time period. Use the from_date and to_date query string parameters to adjust the date range you get; both of these parameters should be filled with a Unix timestamp (seconds since the epoch).

Note for JavaScript developers: JavaScript uses pseudo-Unix timestamps, in that it records milliseconds since the epoch. To provide a valid value, divide the timestamp by 1000 and round the result.

Behaviour is undefined if only one of these parameters is filled; there is no guarantee what results you get and it may change at any time. Do this at your own risk.

Example

Request:

GET /api/posts/between?from_date=1477404348&to_date=1477490748 HTTP/1.1
