Panache Query With Mongo: and operator not working properly with multiple conditions on same field

The following test is failing:

    @Test
    public void failingQuery() {

        UUID videoId = UUID.randomUUID();
        LocalDateTime now = LocalDateTime.now();
        View view = new View(videoId, now.minusMinutes(10));
        view.persist();

        long count1 = View.count("createdAt > ?1", now.minusMinutes(2));
        logger.info("count 1: {}", count1);
        assertThat(count1).isEqualTo(0); // passing

        long count2 = View.count("createdAt > ?1 and createdAt < ?2", now.minusMinutes(2), now);
        logger.info("count 2: {}", count2);
        assertThat(count2).isEqualTo(0); // failing (count2 is equal to 1)
    }

I think the corresponding mongo query should be

    createdAt: {
        $gte: ISODate(date1),
        $lt: ISODate(date2)
    }

The actual mongo query created by panache is:

{
    'createdAt':{'$gt':ISODate('2020-09-14T18:49:36.897Z')},
    'createdAt':{'$lt':ISODate('2020-09-14T18:51:36.897Z')}
}

@rmanibus so there is an issue, a query must be a valid json document, so if you use multiple condition on a query it must be defined as a sub document (and not defined as multiple times the same field as it is done today).

Today we use a string based query generator, we may need to revisit this to fix this issue.

To workaround this, you can use a native query untill we provide a proper fix:

View.count("{'createdAt': {'$gt':?1, '$lt': ?2}}", now.minusMinutes(2), now);

A fix for this would really come in handy.
