[[mapping-date-format]]
== Date Format
In JSON documents, dates are represented as strings. Elasticsearch uses a set
of pre-configured format to recognize and convert those, but you can change the
defaults by specifying the `format` option when defining a `date` type, or by
specifying `dynamic_date_formats` in the `root object` mapping (which will
be used unless explicitly overridden by a `date` type). There are built in
formats supported, as well as complete custom one.
The parsing of dates uses http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/[Joda]. The
default date parsing used if no format is specified is
http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/api-release/org/joda/time/format/ISODateTimeFormat.html#dateOptionalTimeParser()[ISODateTimeFormat.dateOptionalTimeParser].
An extension to the format allow to define several formats using `||`
separator. This allows to define less strict formats that can be used,
for example, the `yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss||yyyy/MM/dd` format will parse
both `yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss` and `yyyy/MM/dd`. The first format will also
act as the one that converts back from milliseconds to a string
representation.

[[date-math]]
=== Date Math
The `date` type supports using date math expression when using it in a
query/filter (mainly make sense in `range` query/filter).
The expression starts with an "anchor" date, which can be either `now`
or a date string (in the applicable format) ending with `||`. It can
then follow by a math expression, supporting `+`, `-` and `/`
(rounding). The units supported are `y` (year), `M` (month), `w` (week), `h` (hour),
`m` (minute), and `s` (second).
Here are some samples: `now+1h`, `now+1h+1m`, `now+1h/d`,
`2012-01-01||+1M/d`.
Note, when doing `range` type searches, and the upper value is
inclusive, the rounding will properly be rounded to the ceiling instead
of flooring it.
To change this behavior, set
`"mapping.date.round_ceil": false`.
