• CRM-20034: Support "OR" params in api get

@eileenmcnaughton Check this out:

@colemanw does this support conditions where the same field is used more than once? Like this: (start_date >= '2016-01-01' AND (end_date <= '2016-12-31' OR end_date IS NULL))

hey this looks good - where does it fit wrt to the API4 efforts and my suggestion for a nest tree structure of AND|OR|NOT operations?

[colemanw]

@davialexandre the api3 has never supported adding the same param twice. It's on the roadmap for v4, come help us out over on that project! https://github.com/civicrm/api4

@ErichBSchulz this is a stopgap to provide basic OR support for v3. I suspect it will never get any fancier than this. What you're suggesting for v4 sounds good, let's focus our energies there.

sweet - ok thanks @colemanw

[eileenmcnaughton]

looks cool

[colemanw]

Thanks. I'm proud of my css tricks in the api explorer to visualize the and/or groupings.
