Answer 1

MongoDB specific syntax

You can use the $or and $and keys in the array you pass to findBy:

$id = $this->getRequest()->getSession()->get('id');
$user = $repo->findBy(
    array(
        '$or' => array(
            array('userId' => $id),
            array('FriendId' => $id),
        ),
    );
);

Using QueryBuilder:

But seeing as this is mongoDB specific, this probably doesn't answer your question. Using the queryBuilder, you could just write this:

$qb = $repository->createQueryBuilder();
$qb->select('f')
    ->from('friends', 'f')//replace friends with the correct entity name
    ->where('f.userId = :uid')
    ->orWhere('f.FriendId = :fid')
    ->setParameter('uid', $id)
    ->setParameter('fid', $id);
$users = $qb->getQuery()->getSingleResult();//or more

You could build the or clause using querybuilder expressions instead, that would look something like this:

$qb->where(
        $qb->expr()->orX(
            $qb->expr()->eq('f.userId', ':uid'),
            $qb->expr()->eq('f.FriendId', ':fid')
        )
    )
    ->setParameter('uid', $id)
    ->setParameter('fid', $id);

Here's some more info

Even though you're using the same value twice, you have to call setParameter twice. The reason for this can be found here
