.filter() function, you construct it using operators.By default, we don't filter your query. Using .build() returns the unfiltered query and values separately. This is useful if you want to use pb-query inside PocketBase Hooks, you can see how in the tutorial.
const { filter } = pbQuery<Post>()
.like('content', 'Top Secret%')
.build();
console.log(filter);
// {
// raw: 'content~{:content1}',
// values: { content1: 'Top Secret%' }
// }
If you want to use pb-query in your app (this is the main usecase of pb-query), you need to filter it. We expose a filter function, but we recommend using the native pb.filter() function instead.
import PocketBase from 'pocketbase';
// PocketBase instance
const pb = new PocketBase("https://example.com");
const { filter } = pbQuery<Post>()
.like('content', 'Top Secret%')
.build(pb.filter); // use PocketBase's filter function
console.log(filter);
// "content~'Top Secret%'"
