Querying relations/associations

[labibramadhan]

I have 2 models:

• product with 1 field: name
• category with 1 field: name

Association is:

• product belongsTo category

The problem is:

When i try to GET /api/v1/products?name[category]=Category 1 it outputs val.replace is not a function error

But according to sequelize documentation on here, the way of querying relations/associations is by using its include parameter and then append its where parameter inside. Maybe you could allow the current include parameter to accept object kind of: include[]={model: 'category', where:{name: 'Category 1'}} ?

@labibramadhan hmmm… the latter suggestion, ?include[]={"model": "category", "where":{"name": "Category 1"}} should work. Just make sure you're sending valid JSON. Let me know if it doesn't work!

@joeybaker, as i've mentioned, i think it doesn't work. seems like include parameter only accepts string or array of string

[joeybaker]

@labibramadhan ah! that makes sense. It should accept an array of JSON strings and doesn't.
