Laravel: order by where in

Question

I am using SphinxSearch to query some contents and have the ids of my objects that I want to query with MySQL. The array of my ids are sorted depending on their rank Sphinx

Answer 1

I got this problem too, but my target array elements were strings. in this case ...

$strings = array('xxx','yyy','zzz');

$imploded_strings = implode("','", $strings);

$items = static::whereIn('some_column', $strings)
->orderByRaw(DB::raw("FIELD(some_column, '$imploded_strings')"))
->get();
