If the value is an empty string, then this comparison will be dropped from the query silently #### ->eqNull(field) [](#-eqnullfield) Compare the field to NULL #### ->eqNotNull(field) [](#-eqnotnullfield) Compare the field to NOT NULL #### ->eqRequired(field, value) [](#-eqrequiredfield-value) Compare the field to the value. If the value is an empty string, then this will force an 1 = 0 in the query and cause the query to return no rows #### ->gt(field, value) [](#-gtfield-value) If the value greater than the field #### ->gte(field, value) [](#-gtefield-value) If the value greater than the field or equal to the field #### ->in(field, value) [](#-infield-value) Performs an IN clause, value can be String\[\], Subquery SQL, or another Select Class object #### ->notIn(field, value) [](#-notinfield-value) Inverse of in().

All comparison after this are joined using OR rather than AND. All wrapped in parenthese #### ->endOr() [](#-endor) Ends a startOr() condition grouping #### ->startAnd() [](#-startand) Default Grouping, only needed if inside of an Or() grouping. Begins an And() condition grouping. All comparison after this are joined using OR rather than AND. All wrapped in parenthese #### ->endAnd() [](#-endand) Ends a startAnd() condition grouping. Cannot end the outer most grouping. ### Sorting & Grouping [](#sorting--grouping) #### ->group() [](#-group) The GROUP BY value e.g. 'Date DESC' or 'LastName ASC, FirstName ASC' #### ->order(value) [](#-ordervalue) The ORDER BY value e.g. 'LastName' or 'LastName, FirstName' #### ->offset(value) [](#-offsetvalue) The Integer to offset the results by #### ->limit(value) [](#-limitvalue) The number of results to limit the return to ### Health Score 26 — LowBetter than 41% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity7 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity59 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 94.4% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
