Question

I seriously cannot solve this syntax error:

PG::Error: ERROR:  syntax error at or near "07"
LINE 1: ...WHERE (post_id = 13 AND created_at > 2012-08-27 07:13:26) ...

This is what my query looks like:

Post.where(post_filter_params_where)

    def post_filter_params_where
      case params[:post_filter].to_i
      when 1
        "post_id = #{params[:id]}"
      when 2
        "post_id = #{params[:id]}"
      when 3
        time = 24.hours.ago.utc.to_s(:db)
        "post_id = #{params[:id]} AND created_at > #{time}"
      else
        "post_id = #{params[:id]}"
      end
    end

Answer 1

I needed to prepend the querys from the function with puts

    def post_filter_params_where
      case params[:post_filter].to_i
      when 1
        puts 'post_id = ?', params[:id]
      when 2
        puts 'post_id = ?', params[:id]
      when 3
        puts 'post_id = ?', params[:id], 24.hours.ago.utc.to_s(:db)
      else
        puts 'post_id = ?', params[:id]
      end
    end
