Symfony2/Doctrine QueryBuilder using andwhere()

Question

I am using following method in a repository class to look for certain tags in my database:

public function getItemsByTag($tag, $limit = null)
{
    $tag = \'%\'.         


        

Answer 1

I would write it like this:

$qb = $this
    ->createQueryBuilder('c')
    ->where('c.tags LIKE :tag')
    ->andWhere('c.reviewed = 1')
    ->andWhere('c.enabled = 1')
    ->setParameter('tag', "%{$tag}%")
    ->orderBy('c.clicks', 'DESC')
    ->addOrderBy('b.name', 'ASC');

if ($limit) {
    $qb->setMaxResults($limit);
}

return $qb->getQuery()->getResult();

You could also unite those where conditions:

->where('c.tags LIKE :tag AND c.reviewed = 1 AND c.enabled = 1')
