Python Using Databases in Python Gettin' CRUD-y With It CRUD: Search Function

PeeWee Hurtmen

I can not figure out why this won't work. It seems to follow the API documentation

crud.py
from models import Challenge


def create_challenge(name, language, steps=1):
    Challenge.create(name=name,
                     language=language,
                     steps=steps)

def search_challenges(a_name, a_lang):
    q = Challenge.select().where(Challenge.name == a_name).where(Challenge.name == a_lang)
    q_two =  Challenge.select().where(Challenge.name == a_name, Challenge.name == a_lang)
    return q_two

I'm having the same issue, did you figure this out?

I imagine you have already figured this out, but I was just having difficulty with it and had a hard time finding a solution.

My mistake was a silly one name is contains and the equality only holds for the language.

Challenge.name.contains(name) ...
