Simple where filter

[kenjiqq]

  if (options.allowSimpleWhere) {
    this.utils.forOwn(params, function (value, key) {
      if (!(key in reserved) && !(key in where)) {
        where[key] = {
          '==': value
        };
      }
    });
  }

With this code in the default filter no other operator then == is supported, so you can't use stuff like >, in etc. It should probably just reuse the operator that is defined in the simple where.

That is the one caveat of the simple where, it only supports ==.

When { name: 'John' } gets serialized to the query string, you get ?name=John, so I don't see how the simple where could support anything other than ==.

This is the only way to use operators other than ==, unless you want to override the default filter with your own.

{
  where: {
    name: {
       '!=': 'John'
     }
  }  
}

I can see that, maybe that should be documented on the filter page, that this is a limitation under the Shortcuts part
