[SOLVED] use Query to get document

for now I use listDocuments, but I only want to get 1 document, which would be easier to use getDocument with Query instead

TL;DR

The user wants to use a Query to get a document in the SDK. The solution is to use ListDocuments instead, as GetDocument does not support queries. The user suggests adding a new function called getDocumentByQuery.

is it even possible?

GetDocument doesn't take queries 🧐

It does in the docs 😅

ye that's what I'm wondering lol

Weird...I can't see that...

Ah, it was added in 1.3. read the description

@Bill.IHCha :appwriteupvote:

I meant read the description for what query method is supported

ah, only select?

it would be good to support getDocument with equal query tho?

Why? It wouldn't really make sense...you're not trying to find a document with getDocument. You want the document with that ID

I have an attribute called user_id, which I want to just get it. which corresponding to discord user id

You would use list documents then

I do, but I just feel it's better to use getDocument with query, if document doesn't exist it throws an AppwriteException. Right now I have to manually check if there is document.documents[0] everytime to handle all the errors, just doesn't feel right
