Search with concat fields in cakephp 3

问题

I need to make a search query using $this->Paginate in CakePHP 3. Following is the code I am using

$searchCondition = array(
    'OR' => array(
        'Quotes.quotenum LIKE' => "%" . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . "%",
        'Branches.name LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . '%',
        'Contacts.fname LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . '%',
        'Contacts.lname LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . '%',
        'CONCAT(Contacts.fname, Contacts.lname) LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . '%',
        'Quotes.description LIKE' => '%' . $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword'] . '%'
    )
);

$cond = array(
    'conditions' => array_merge($searchConditions, $searchCondition, $limo),
    'order'= > array('Quotes.quotenum desc'),
    'contain' => array('Branches','Contacts')
);

$this->set('articleList', $this->paginate($this->Quotes));

As you can see I merge the condition arrays with each other and then send them to paginate. This worked fine in CakePHP 2.7. However now I get the error

Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'contacts.lname' in 'where clause'.

The lname column definitely exits in the database table. Is there something I am doing wrong. If so, could someone tell me the right way to do concat search as I have been trying to do this for quite some time.

Yu have to use query expression but this can't be done in a pagination array.

So Following ndn suggestion here's how I would do

create a custom finder. In your QuotesTable file

public function findByKeyword(Query $query, array $options)
{
    $keyword = $options['keyword'];
    $query->where(
        function ($exp, $q) use($keyword){
            $conc = $q->func()->concat([
                'Contacts.fname' => 'literal', ù
                'Contacts.lname' => 'literal']);
            return $exp
                ->or_([
                    'Quotes.quotenum LIKE' => "%$keyword%",
                    'Branches.name LIKE' => "%$keyword%",
                    'Contacts.fname LIKE' => "%$keyword%",
                    'Contacts.lname LIKE' => "%$keyword%",
                    'Quotes.description LIKE' => "%$keyword%"
                ])
                ->like($conc, "%$keyword%");
            }
        );
    return $query;
}

Then in your controller

$this->paginate = [
        'finder' => [
            'byKeyword' => [
                'keyword' => $this->request->data['Quote']['keyword']
        ]],
        'conditions' => $limo,  // this will merge your $limo conditions                  
                                // with the ones you set in the custom finder
        'order'= > ['Quotes.quotenum desc'],
        'contain' => ['Branches','Contacts']
    ];

$this->set('articleList', $this->paginate($this->Quotes));
