New rb:filter/2 to filter reports by date
The function filter/2 expects a second parameter Dates that can be used to return reports that occurred between the provided dates. Usage: Dec22 = {{2009,12,22},{0,0,0}}. Dec24 = {{2009,12,24},{0,0,0}}. rb:filter(Filters, {Dec22, from}). %will return reports that occurred from Dec22. rb:filter(Filters, {Dec22, to}). %will return reports that occurred before Dec22. rb:filter(Filters, {Dec22, Dec24}). %will return reports that occurred between Dec22 % and Dec24
