Question

I want to find a record by doing something like this

@something = Model.where(X=1 OR Y=1)

But all the things I try don’t work. This should be easy but I can’t find the solution anywhere.

EDIT: To be more specific I am trying to find all records where X is 1 and Y is 1.

Answer 1

Which set here do you want:

| id | x | y |
|  1 | 1 | 0 |
|  2 | 0 | 1 |
|  3 | 1 | 1 |

If you want 3 only: Model.where(:x => 1, :y => 1)

If you want 1, 2, and 3:

tab=Model.arel_table; Model.where(tab[:x].eq(1).or(tab[:y].eq(1)))

Or even: Model.where(["x=? OR y=?",1,1]) if your OR statements aren’t complicated.
