Django-filter: _before and _after suffixes for DateTimeFromToRangeFilter do not work

[jnegro]

I am unable to use the _before and _after suffixes for a DateTimeFromToRangeFilter. My FilterSet contains:

updated_at = filters.DateTimeFromToRangeFilter()

but if I make a request via an external script using GET params 'updated_at_before' and 'updated_at_after', the filtering doesn't work. If i use the Filter in the DRF UI for that field (MultiWidget I assume), it generates a query with the params 'updated_at_0' and 'updated_at_1' respectively. I altered the script and confirmed that this works, albeit a rather inconvenient workaround that isn't reflected in the docs.

Here's an excerpt of my pip freeze:
Django==1.11.7
django-auth-ldap==1.3.0
django-cors-headers==2.1.0
django-extensions==1.9.7
django-filter==1.1.0
django-jsonfield==1.0.1
django-nose==1.4.5
django-rest-framework==0.1.0
django-rest-swagger==2.1.2
django-storages==1.6.5
djangorestframework==3.7.3
djangorestframework-jwt==1.11.0

And this is on Python 2.7.14. Thanks for your help!

You’re looking at the docs for master which represents the upcoming 2.0 release. Switch to the 1.1 docs and all will work.

@carltongibson I'm not sure if it's possible, but it might be helpful if the default version on RTD could be changed to 1.1.0 instead of master/2.x. Alternatively, we could add a temporary note on the index page, directing users to http://django-filter.readthedocs.io/en/1.1.0/

@rpkilby That's...

1. Possible.
2. Extremely easy
3. Now done.
