Fixes #1349

…on Euclidean/Manhattan collections

In local/in-memory mode, LocalCollection.search() has an isinstance
override that correctly treats Recommend (best_score/sum_scores),
Discover, and Context queries as bigger-is-better (since they use
sigmoid-based synthetic scores), regardless of the collection's
underlying distance metric. This override was applied to the sort
direction but not repeated for the score_threshold comparison a few
lines below, which branched on required_order alone. On a Euclidean
or Manhattan collection this caused the threshold check to use the
comparison direction meant for raw distances, breaking the loop on
the very first (best-scoring) point and returning zero results for
any non-extreme threshold. Extracted the override into a single
bigger_is_better variable used consistently by both the sort and
the threshold check. Fixes qdrant#1370.
The hour-only-offset retry (which appends :00 to complete offsets
like +01 -> +01:00) was unguarded, so it also fired for any string
that failed every format in available_formats - including truncated
datetimes like '2024-06-15 12' or '2024-06-15T12:30'. These would
get :00 appended and accidentally match a valid format, causing
local mode to silently accept input that a real Qdrant instance
rejects. Guarded the retry to only fire when the string actually
ends in an hour-only UTC offset ([+-]HH). Verified against all four
cases from the issue: truncated hour and truncated minute now
correctly return None, while the hour-only-offset and valid full
date cases still parse correctly. Fixes qdrant#1349.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The datetime parser now appends :00 only for strings with signed two-digit hour offsets. Other invalid or truncated inputs are rejected. LocalCollection.search now shares one bigger_is_better decision for result ordering and score_threshold handling across distance-based and synthetic-score query types.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9543d

The parser can still incorrectly accept minute-only timestamps such as 2024-06-15T12:30, contrary to the intended behavior. Merge should wait until this format is explicitly rejected or removed.

Reject the minute-only T format before this fallback.

parse_available_formats(date_str) runs first, and available_formats still contains %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M. Therefore, parse("2024-06-15T12:30") returns a datetime before this guard executes. Remove that format or explicitly reject it so the parser returns None as required by the PR objective. The comment claiming this value reaches the fallback is also inaccurate.
