如何使用比较运算符在PHP Activerecord中进行大规模删除

Question

From this link http://www.phpactiverecord.org/projects/main/wiki/Basic_CRUD I got the following:

6 # MASSIVE DELETE
7 # Model::table()->delete(WhereToDelete);
8 Post::table()->delete(array('id' => array(5, 9, 26, 30));
9 # DELETE FROM `posts` WHERE id IN (5, 9, 26, 30)

However, I need to delete from a table WHERE DATE is less than 2012-01-01 00:00:00 AND where CATEGORY equal to JOURNAL

The following code does NOT work:

Model::table()->delete(array('date'=>'<2012-01-01 00:00:00','category'=>'journal'));

If I leave:

Model::table()->delete(array('category'=>'journal'));

it deletes only the WHERE category equals to journal. So my question is HOW can I implement COMPARISON operator into that query with the date?

I've searched everywhere online and can't find the answer anywhere. Would really appreciate your input! THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!!

Try this:

http://www.phpactiverecord.org/docs/ActiveRecord/Model#methoddelete_all

YourModel::delete_all(array('conditions' => array('date >= ? AND category <= ?', $thedate,$cateogry)));
