CodeIgniter query to return rows where a column value matches one of two qualifying values

I want to write a CodeIgniter active record query for the following raw SQL:

select *
from bookdetails
where editionId=$edid1
      or editionId=$edid2

Below is my CodeIgniter attempt.

public function get_rare_outofprintBooks($edid1,$edid2) 
{
    $this->load->database();   
    $query = $this->db
        ->get_where(
            'bookdetails',
            array('edition_id' => $edid1),
            array('edition_id' => $edid2)
    );  // I tried like this but its NOT Working  
         
    if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {
        foreach ($query->result() as $row) {
            $data[] = $row;
        }
        return $data;
    }
    return false;
}
Solution 
  • $this->db->where('editionId', $edid1);
$this->db->or_where('editionId', $edid2);

    It's right in the documentation http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/database/active_record.html
