How to have a dynamic query field in where clause

   function check_model_owner(field, value, callback) { 
      Model.find({where: {field: value }}, function(err, models) {
            //code
         });
    }

This code is called from two different places, and what follows is the same for both calls.

Of course this breaks now because field, in the where clause, does actually not exist in the model, and should be substituted by the field variable from the function parameters....can I do that?

Solution

  • You can create the query object:

    function check_model_owner(field, value, callback) { 
  var query = {};
  query[field] = value;
  Model.find({where: query}, function(err, models) {

  });
}
