How to select randomly with doctrine

Question

Here is how I query my database for some words

$query = $qb->select(\'w\')
    ->from(\'DbEntities\\Entity\\Word\', \'w\')
    ->where(\'w.indiction         


        

Answer 1

Or you could do this -->

$words = $em->getRepository('Entity\Word')->findAll();
shuffle($words);

Of course this would be very inefficient if you have many records so use with caution.
