`where` filters an array to only the elements containing a matching
|
|
value for a given field.
|
|
|
|
It works in a similar manner to the [`where` keyword in
|
|
SQL][wherekeyword].
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where .Pages "Section" "foo" }}
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It can be used by dot-chaining the second argument to refer to a nested element of a value.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
+++
|
|
series: golang
|
|
+++
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where .Site.Pages "Params.series" "golang" }}
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It can also be used with the logical operators `!=`, `>=`, `in`, etc. Without an operator, `where` compares a given field with a matching value equivalent to `=`.
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where .Pages "Section" "!=" "foo" }}
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following logical operators are available with `where`:
|
|
|
|
`=`, `==`, `eq`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value equals a matching value
|
|
|
|
`!=`, `<>`, `ne`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value doesn't equal a matching value
|
|
|
|
`>=`, `ge`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value is greater than or equal to a matching value
|
|
|
|
`>`, `gt`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value is greater than a matching value
|
|
|
|
`<=`, `le`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value is lesser than or equal to a matching value
|
|
|
|
`<`, `lt`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value is lesser than a matching value
|
|
|
|
`in`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value is included in a matching value; a matching value must be an array or a slice
|
|
|
|
`not in`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value isn't included in a matching value; a matching value must be an array or a slice
|
|
|
|
`intersect`
|
|
: `true` if a given field value that is a slice/array of strings or integers contains elements in common with the matching value; it follows the same rules as the [`intersect` function][intersect].
|
|
|
|
## Use `where` with `Booleans`
|
|
When using booleans you should not put quotation marks.
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{range where .Pages "Draft" true}}
|
|
<p>{{.Title}}</p>
|
|
{{end}}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Use `where` with `intersect`
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where .Site.Pages "Params.tags" "intersect" .Params.tags }}
|
|
{{ if ne .Permalink $.Permalink }}
|
|
{{ .Render "summary" }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also put the returned value of the `where` clauses into a variable:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="where-intersect-variables.html" >}}
|
|
{{ $v1 := where .Site.Pages "Params.a" "v1" }}
|
|
{{ $v2 := where .Site.Pages "Params.b" "v2" }}
|
|
{{ $filtered := $v1 | intersect $v2 }}
|
|
{{ range $filtered }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
## Use `where` with `first`
|
|
|
|
Using `first` and `where` together can be very
|
|
powerful. Below snippet gets a list of posts only from [**main
|
|
sections**](#mainsections), sorts it using the [default
|
|
ordering](/templates/lists/) for lists (i.e., `weight => date`), and
|
|
then ranges through only the first 5 posts in that list:
|
|
|
|
{{< code file="first-and-where-together.html" >}}
|
|
{{ range first 5 (where site.RegularPages "Type" "in" site.Params.mainSections) }}
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
## Nest `where` Clauses
|
|
|
|
You can also nest `where` clauses to drill down on lists of content by more than one parameter. The following first grabs all pages in the "blog" section and then ranges through the result of the first `where` clause and finds all pages that are *not* featured:
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where (where .Pages "Section" "blog" ) "Params.featured" "!=" true }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Unset Fields
|
|
|
|
Filtering only works for set fields. To check whether a field is set or exists, you can use the operand `nil`.
|
|
|
|
This can be useful to filter a small amount of pages from a large pool. Instead of setting a field on all pages, you can set that field on required pages only.
|
|
|
|
Only the following operators are available for `nil`
|
|
|
|
* `=`, `==`, `eq`: True if the given field is not set.
|
|
* `!=`, `<>`, `ne`: True if the given field is set.
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ range where .Pages "Params.specialpost" "!=" nil }}
|
|
{{ .Content }}
|
|
{{ end }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Portable `where` filters -- `site.Params.mainSections` {#mainsections}
|
|
|
|
**This is especially important for themes.**
|
|
|
|
To list the most relevant pages on the front page or similar, you
|
|
should use the `site.Params.mainSections` list instead of comparing
|
|
section names to hard-coded values like `"posts"` or `"post"`.
|
|
|
|
```go-html-template
|
|
{{ $pages := where site.RegularPages "Type" "in" site.Params.mainSections }}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If the user has not set this config parameter in their site config, it
|
|
will default to the _section with the most pages_.
|
|
|
|
The user can override the default:
|
|
|
|
{{< code-toggle file="config" >}}
|
|
[params]
|
|
mainSections = ["blog", "docs"]
|
|
{{< /code-toggle >}}
