Filtering for SM about vets-api HOT 3 CLOSED

?filter[[some_attribute][some_operation]]=some_value&filter[[same_attribute][some_other_operation]]=some_other_value

Where some_operation and some_other_operation is one of

• eq
• not_eq
• gteq
• lteq

For example a date range could be:

http://api.vets.gov/v0/health/messaging/folders/0/messages?filter[[date_sent][gteq]]=2015-01-01&filter[[date_sent][lteq]]=2015-12-31

from vets-api.

We can add additional operations for regex matches, but those will need special sanitization so are currently not supported.

We could also look at implementing eq_any which would be OR operations, but that just increases complexity. Prefer to have all operations that are changed be an implicit AND

still to implement matches for subject line and from.
