  • Changed database in test_helper.rb from “sqllite” to “mysql”. (I didn’t have env[db] setup.)
  • Created a DB – “create database whereplugintest”
  • Set DB name (whereplugintest), username, and password in the where project’s database.yml
    … Green Bar!

I was looking for a clean way to add multiple conds to find. BUT – 2 things:
I use:

name 'like', '%' + params[:search] + '%' unless params[:search].nil

  1. params is inaccessible is this the same thing as with self?
  2. if there are no conditions (all are nil?):

    Task.findwithconditions(:all) do
    end

    I get a SQL error it produces ‘AND ()’.

You could actually put conditions in a seperate file entirely if you wanted a really clean looking file and just have condition definitions elsewhere. That'd be an interesting way to organize them.
