Nested query params with Tesla - get

Question

This is the URL I'm trying to hit:
/example/?fields=*&filter[platform][eq]=111&order=date:asc&filter[date][gt]=1500619813000&expand=yes
My code:
get("/release_dates",
query: [
fields: "*",
order: "date:desc",
expand: "games",
filter: %{
date: %{gt: unix_now},
version_parent: %{not_exists: 1}
}
]
)
I'm trying to perform a Tesla GET request that has those filter[date][gt]=123123123123 type query param.
Appreciate the help!

If I understand you correctly, you want to generate a URI with a filter for "greater than" timestamps which are variable.
According to your inital example, this can be done like this:
Tesla.get("/example/",
fields: "*",
filter: [
platform: [
eq: 111
]
],
order: "date:asc",
filter: [
date: [
gt: unix_now
]
],
expand: "yes"
)
Note that /example is a relative reference and can only be resolved with a base URI. Better provide a complete URI.
If you want to experiment with the URI generator in an iex console, you can use iex -S mix in your project directory and then use the following functions:
Tesla.build_url("/example/",
fields: "*",
filter: [
platform: [
eq: 111
]
],
order: "date:asc",
filter: [
date: [
gt: 123123123123
]
],
expand: "yes"
) |> URI.decode()
