I'm trying to specify a query in my model
$this->db
->select('*')
->from('library')
->where('library.rating >=', $form['slider'])
->where('library.votes >=', '1000')
->where('library.language !=', 'German')
->where('library.available_until >=', date("Y-m-d H:i:s"))
->or_where('library.available_until =', "00-00-00 00:00:00")
->where('library.release_year >=', $year_start)
->where('library.release_year <=', $year_end)
->join('rating_repo', 'library.id = rating_repo.id')
So, the trouble i'm having is with my or_where
. I want the or
to be restricted to only the available_until
field. Currently, however, i'm getting results which have a language of German which isn't what i want. How do i restrict my or_where
filter to the available_until
field only?
You can modify just the two lines:
->where('(library.available_until >=', date("Y-m-d H:i:s"), FALSE)
->or_where("library.available_until = '00-00-00 00:00:00')", NULL, FALSE)
EDIT:
Omitting the FALSE
parameter would have placed the backticks before the brackets and make them a part of the table name/value, making the query unusable.
The NULL
parameter is there just because the function requires the second parameter to be a value, and since we don't have one, we send NULL.
