Question

I am trying to create a find method. That should find all konkurrencer that have the tid “1 min” or “2 min” and the form is “Nyhedsbrev”.

I have tried something like this:

Konkurrancer.where("tid = ? or ? and form = ?", "2 min", "1 min", "Nyhedsbrev")

It doesn’t work. It only finds all konkurrencer where the form is Nyhedsbrev.

Answer 1

Perhaps this works as intended.

Konkurrancer.where("tid IN (?) AND form = ?", ['2 min', '1 min'], 'Nyhedsbrev')

Other than that, the ‘OR’ syntac you are trying to use is written like this in SQL:

SELECT * FROM foo WHERE column1 = 'foo' OR column1 = 'BAR'

Notice that for the ‘OR’ condition you still need to list the column name again.
