is there anyway i can pass an array to getAll()?

I am looking for a good way to do the following.

  1. Get a list of uids from tableA like..

r.Table('tableA').get(1)('somelistofuid')

  1. Then I want to use the list go get all the data I need from tableB

r.Table('tableB').getAll(listfromQueryAbove)

I know that i can do getAll(a,b,c) to get a,b,c but could there be a simpler way?

You want something to unpack an array into an argument list, that's args.

So change your query to

r.Table('tableB').getAll(r.args(listfromQueryAbove))

and it should work.

You can use r.args for this:

r.table('table').getAll(r.args(ARRAY))
