Ez-where plugin and type mismatch

Rails

I’m getting an error

type mismatch: String given

RAILS_ROOT: ./script/…/config/…

cond = EZ::Where::Condition.new do
category_id === [category_id] # these are integers coming in
state_id === [state_id] # same
term_id === [term_id] # same
city =~ ‘%city’ # this would be a string
title =~ ‘%title’ # string as well

  end

Something wrong here ?

I don’t know this plugin at all, but normally you need to give a
|thingie| in a block, so my guess would be:

cond = EZ::Where::Condition.new do |ez|
ez.category_id === [category_id] # these are integers coming in
ez.state_id === [state_id] # same
ez.term_id === [term_id] # same
ez.city =~ ‘%city’ # this would be a string
ez.title =~ ‘%title’ # string as well

  end

i could be totally wrong though :smiley:

=~ is looking for a regexp.

instead of providing ‘%city’ try using /city$/

Or something similar.

No, ‘=~’ maps to a LIKE SQL action, so the format specified is correct.

He is missing a table name for the block… It should be something
like this…

cond = EZ::Where::Condition.new :some_table_name do
category_id === [category_id] # these are integers coming in
state_id === [state_id] # same
term_id === [term_id] # same
city =~ ‘%city’ # this would be a string
title =~ ‘%title’ # string as well
end
