Laravel Scout, search with where clausure

Question

I just discovered Laravel Scout and I wanted to make a search with where clausure. The code shown below

$notes = Note::search($request->lecturer_search)->where([
            ['course_id','=',$course_id],
            ['course_code_number', '=', $request->course_code_number_search]
        ])->orderBy('created_at','desc')->paginate(5);

But I'm getting this error:

Type error: Too few arguments to function Laravel\Scout\Builder::where(), 1 passed in /home/vagrant/www/Bee/app/Http/Controllers/SearchController.php on line 36 and exactly 2 expected

When I remove where clausure, there is no problem.

Answer 1

Scout has it's own where() method which accepts just two parameters: field and value. So do this:

->where('course_id', $course_id)
->where('course_code_number', $request->course_code_number_search)

Instead of this:

->where([
    ['course_id','=',$course_id],
    ['course_code_number', '=', $request->course_code_number_search]
])

You can look at the source code of the where() method here.
