How to find data where field is empty?

[chakhedik]

Let say the model is 'something' have field 'id' & 'anything',

A = something:new(id, []),
A:save().

boss_db:find(something, [{anything, []}]) or boss_db:find(something, [{anything, ""}]) does not return anything, just an empty list

I've tried the 'equals' & 'matches' also the same.

What adapter are you using?

[chakhedik]

I use mongodb

[evanmiller]

Do you have the same problem with other adapters? E.g. the mock adapter

[chakhedik]

It seems there's no problem with mock adapter, I can find data by empty field, I haven't try any others though, I use mongodb mainly

@chakhedik I'll have a look.

@evanmiller Haven't been following CB lately. Just checked out latest version e001c1a and getting a compilation error when building the framework:

$ make
[...]
==> cowboy (get-deps)
==> mochicow (get-deps)
==> aleppo (compile)
make: *** [all] Error 1

My config:
Erlang R14B04 (erts-5.8.5) [source] [64-bit] [smp:2:2] [rq:2] [async-threads:0] [kernel-poll:false]
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Am I missing something?

Instead of "make" try

./rebar get-deps
./rebar compile
