Question

Is it possible to use OR statement in Doctrine findBy() method?
I know that given array is interpreted as case1 AND case2...
Like this

$this->repos['notif']->findBy(array('status' => 1, 'status' => 2, 'status' => 3);

Stands for

SELECT * FROM `notif` WHERE status=1 AND status=2 AND status=3;

Now I need something to stand for:

SELECT * FROM `notif` WHERE status=1 OR status=2 OR status=3;

Is there a way to get all cases?

Answer 1

As far as I know this is not a supported feature by Doctrine to use IN() queries with findby. You could do two things:

1. Implement a findByStatus(array $statusTypes) method in your (custom) ‘notif’ repository class. If you like this approach I can give you a example.

2. Convert your findBy to the following:

   $qb = $this->repos['notif']->createQueryBuilder('n');
   $data = $qb->where($qb->expr()->in('status', array(1,2,3)))->getQuery()->getResult();
   

That should work either 🙂
