Disable range option?

[tfwright]

Thanks for this useful tool.

I want to allow searching a specific category foo with a query like bar-baz, but picky is currently trying to convert it into a range (which is crazy). Is there a way to specify that this category should not allow user options?

Hi @tfwright, thanks.
And yeah, currently in Picky - is by default a range character, and both ends are then used to do a range query.
This can be mitigated by telling Picky to use a different range character like so:

Picky::Query::Token.range_character = "…"
Picky::Search.new(some_index).search("year:2000…2008") # Will find results in a range.

Here's the spec for it: https://github.com/floere/picky/blob/master/server/spec/functional/custom_delimiters_spec.rb#L91-L110

So, no, you can't yet tell Picky not to allow user options, you can only set the range character to something unusual. However, I am thinking about making it settable to nil (#131).

Cheers
