Description
We currently have an issue when fetching events by starttime and endtime.
23:00 00:00 01:00
<----------------------------------------------------------------------
| event start event end |
If we have a case like this and we have an event which starts before 00:00 and ends after 00:00, if we query with startime=the_second_day we will not get the event even though it is within the second day.
Currently we are checking the datetimes like this
if event.starttime >= starttime and event.starttime <= endtime:
return event
What we actually should do when fetching events with a starttime and endtime
if event.endtime >= starttime and event.starttime <= endtime:
return event
This would however require us to add a "endtime" field to save in every datastore.
At that point we could also remove the duration field since it's essentially endtime-starttime to save on db size.
TL;DR: Our datastorages cannot filter by starttime+duration to get the endtime, we need an actual endtime field instead of duration to be able to filter after endtime and fix a few quirks when having events in between two dates.
