[SOLVED] Prisma NOT equal to true, filtering incorrectly

Prisma NOT equal to true, filtering incorrectly

I'm running a prisma postgres filter query, as below. However when I add the NOT equal to filter, it ends up filtering everything and returning no results, without an error. What am I doing wrong? I have a variety of entries with both is_soundtrack false, true and null. So I should be getting some results. I also commented out another approach to using NOT, however this also doesn't work?

I'm wanting to show all results, where is_soundtrack does not equal true.

const songs = await this.db.song.findMany({
  where: {
    name: {
      contains: "test string,
    },
    // is_soundtrack: {
    //   not: true,
    // },
    NOT: {
      is_soundtrack: true,
    },
  },
  orderBy: {
    spotifyImg640: 'desc',
  }
})

Solution

I'm wanting to show all results, where is_soundtrack does not equal true.

So you need:

is_soundtrack IS NOT TRUE

Or:

is_soundtrack IS DISTINCT FROM true

Or:

(is_soundtrack = false OR is_soundtrack IS NULL)

The current filter NOT is_soundtrack = true would only cover false, but exclude null values.
