I'm new to the world of Erlang and just starting to play around with Mnesia.
Lets say I have those two records. I want to compose a query that will
pull a basket out of the database and fill it with a list of all the
apples that have their basket_id set to the same id as the basket.
-record(basket, {id, apples = []}).
-record(apple, {id, brand, basket_id}).
I can do something like this:
(where Id is the id of the basket I'm looking for)
qlc:q([B#basket{apples = A} || B <- mnesia:table(basket),
B#basket.id =:= Id,
A <- mnesia:table(apple),
A#apple.basket_id =:= B#basket.id]).
However when I run that query it only returns a single apple in the
basket, as opposed to a list of apples.
Is it possible to do this in a single query?
