Sequelize where condition as raw

Question

I have a model defined. I would like to do an advanced select query in postgres on that model.

The raw query would look like this:

SELECT
    6371 * acos(
        cos(
            radians("+CustomerLat+")
        ) * cos(radians(sto.lat)) * cos(
            radians(sto.lng) - radians("+CustomerLng+")
        ) + sin(
            radians("+CustomerLat+")
        ) * sin(radians(sto.lat))
    ) AS distance
FROM
    stores sto
ORDER BY
    distance ASC
LIMIT 1

Could I do that with sequelize directly on the model without doing this in raw?

Stores
.findAll()
.then(function(res){ //****// })

Answer 1

This question is old but, There are two things I would suggest... Firstly why don't you use PostGIS a postgresql extension which is superb and fast when it comes to GIS data. Secondly.. No! you can't do that... But for advanced where clause conditions I would suggest mixing things up with Knex.js A raw query builder. You can use Knex.js to build your where clause and mix things up with PostGIS to get the best results.
