Using GROQ to Filter Out a List of Pages to Exclude From slug.current

9 replies
Last updated: Dec 1, 2022
Good day 🙂I’m trying to use GROQ to filter out a
list of pages to exclude if the 
slug.current
contain either 
/press
or 
/blog
Using 
match
because the 
slug.current
can be 
/press/XXX
or 
/blog/XXX

The following works

.filter('_type == "page" && !(slug.current match "/press") && !(slug.current match "/blog")')

I’m looking into simplified the match to either but the following doesn’t work. Any advice?

.filter('_type == "page" && !(slug.current match ["/press", "/blog"])')

!(slug.current in ["/press", "/blog"])

Hmmm, not sure how it works with arrays, but you could check 
path


[!(slug.current in path("/press.**"))] // slug.current matches anything that is not under the "/press" slug
Not much different from 
match
in this instance, but maybe it has some array matching

Didn’t work 🙂

The 
path
function only works on the 
_id
field.
I don’t think there is a way to make that query simpler right now I’m afraid.

match
can’t be simplified to support multiple array. End up having 2 matches with AND operator
.filter('_type == "page" && !(slug.current match "/press") && !(slug.current match "/blog")')
