Description: Handles indexing and selection of data on a given time range.
 indexer reads in a configuration file describing a source and outputs an index in CSV format containing a list of filenames, timestamp of the earliest record, and timestamp of the latest record.
 . 
 Using timefind in conjunction with these indexes, a user can downselect the number of files based on a time range.
 .
 Given a large data store, a user may only need a subset of data for processing. For example, a user may only want to process a month’s worth of data (e.g., January 2015) instead of the entire collection.
 . 
 Given a time range, timefind retrieves the filenames from an index generated by indexer that overlap with the time range.
