Dynamic ORDER BY sorting #1047
-
|
When I try to use a variable for ASC or DESC inside the ternary, I'm getting a syntax error. Is there a way to have dynamic sorting? I have a simple table with invoices and I want to be able to sort them asc or desc based on a variable generated by the table, but when I send it to the sql syntax, it doesn't want to make it work. Is there a way around this? |

Yeah those are PostgreSQL keywords, so can't be passed as parameter. you should do something like: await sql`
select * from something
order by some_column ${ asc ? sql`asc` : sql`desc` }
