If you want to use an OR operator on one column’s value, you can pass an array to .where
and ActiveRecord will use IN(value,other_value)
:
Model.where(:column => ["value", "other_value"]
outputs:
SELECT `table_name`.* FROM `table_name` WHERE `table_name`.`column` IN ('value', 'other_value')
This should achieve the equivalent of an OR
on a single column
