Finding Overlap date ranges between startdate and enddate in couch Db or cloudant

问题

Hello I am building a reservation app using database as couchDb. I have several reservation documents and each of them has roomId, start date and end date.

Now when user creates a meeting request with roomId, start date and end date, I need to search for overlaps time ranges between the start time and endtime in the existing reservations and create a reservations only when there is no conflict. Along with this I also need to check for roomid.

The requirement is similar to Determine Whether Two Date Ranges Overlap.

I had created a view on my couch db emitting three keys:

function (doc) {  
    if (doc.type == "reservation") {  
         emit([doc.roomid, doc.startTime, doc.endTime], doc);  
    }
}

I did try creating something like

?startkey=["1970-01-01T00:00:00Z", ""]&endkey=["\ufff0", "1971-01-01T00:00:00Z"]

However I am not really getting how to compound query the view to find range of date along with the roomid.

Any help would be appreciated.

You could use Cloudant Query and specify the (StartA <= EndB) and (EndA >= StartB) search condition that's outlined in the referenced answer.

Create an index

Send a POST request to the _index endpoint, passing the following JSON data structure as payload.

  POST https://$USERNAME:$PASSWORD@$HOST/$DATABASE/_index HTTP/1.1

 {
  "index": {
   "fields": [
     { "name":"startTime",
       "type":"string"
     }, 
     { 
       "name":"endTime",
       "type":"string"
     }, 
     { 
       "name":"roomid",
       "type":"string"
     } 
   ]
  },
  "type": "text"
 }

Query the index

Send a POST request to the _find endpoint, passing the following JSON data structure as payload.

  POST https://$USERNAME:$PASSWORD@$HOST/$DATABASE/_find HTTP/1.1

  {
   "selector": {
    "startTime": {
      "$lte": "2017-03-06T15:00:00Z"
    },
    "endTime": {
      "$gte": "2017-03-06T14:00:00Z"
    },
    "roomid": {
      "$eq": "room 123"
    }
   }
  }

Replace the timestamp and room identifier values as needed. If the query returns at least one document you've encountered a booking conflict.
