Doctrine: Convert a createQuery query to createQueryBuilder

This is the current query that I have, and it works fine:

$q = $this->_em->createQuery("SELECT s FROM app\models\Sub s 
                              LEFT JOIN s.case c
                              WHERE s.type LIKE '%$type'
                              AND c.id = '$id'");


foreach ($q->getResult() as $row) {
   $results[$row->getId()] = $row;
}

I want to convert this to the QueryBuilder API structure, this is what I have so far, but it's not working correctly. (And I need the results as the same format as above).

 $q = $this->_em->createQueryBuilder();

 $q->add('select', 's')
   ->add('from', 'app\models\Sub s')
   ->add('leftJoin', 's.case c')
   ->add('where', 's.type LIKE :type')
   ->add('where', 'c.id = :case');
   ->setParameter('type', "%$type");
   ->setParameter('case', $id);

And again, this isn't working properly, and I don't know how to get the results in the same format as above. Thanks!

Close, but no cigar. You'll need to learn how to use the Expr classes that comes with Doctrine in order to create the correct WHERE clause.

http://www.doctrine-project.org/docs/orm/2.1/en/reference/query-builder.html#expr-classes

In the example you provided, you are actually aiming for something like this (not tested):

$q->add('select', 's')
  ->add('from', 'app\model\Sub s')
  ->add('leftJoin', 's.case c')
  ->add('where', $q->expr()->andX($q->expr()->like('s.type', ':type'), $q->expr()->eq('case', ':case')))
  ->setParameter('type', "%$type")
  ->setParameter('case', $id);

As your WHERE clause gets more complicated, so will the nesting of expressions.
