Hello, It does not seem obvious to me how to perform the equivalent of

SELECT * FROM table_name SELECT field1,field2 FROM table_name

examples show something of the form rows <- runDB $ selectList [ Field1Eq value1, Field2Gt value2] [ ] 0 0 But I don't see how the name of the table is determined nor how to select additional fields to extract.

What would this do? rows <- runDB $ selectList [ ] [ ] 0 0

This all has to do with Haskell type trickery. If GHC can determine the expected type of rows based on how you use it, it will work. If it can't, it will complain about ambiguous types. If you want to select from the Person entity, you can do something like: rows <- runDB $ selectList ([] :: [Filter Person]) [] 0 0 Michael
