Description

Hi !

We've been developping an embedded analytics module based on cube, with an extensive use of drill down. While it's working fine for most queries, it's not yet supported for queries with a date range comparison (and we plan to use it quite a lot)

For instance, the graph below is made from a comparison with a compare date range. image (1)

Would it be possible to extend the coverage of drill down ?

Many thanks in advance for your support on this

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Cube's query pipeline for compareDateRange and drill down. Study the existing drill down implementation for regular queries and adapt it to handle the time dimension's compareDateRange filter. Look at how Cube generates SQL for date range comparisons and where the drill down transformation is applied.
