Sails.js find multiple database entries by id

Question
I'm bit new at node.js/sails.js and was wondering (if possible) how to retrieve multiple database entries by searching for their ids - there is something like this mentioned in the MongoDB documentation:
db.inventory.find( { qty: { $in: [ 5, 15 ] } } )
And here is what i've tried:
// users param example: 12341243124, 1231231231, 21312313212
var users = req.param('users').split(',');
User.find({id: { $in: users }}, function (err, response) {
// do something here
});
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Solution
Sorry for bothering - as it turns out Waterline supports array parameters - so by changing the code above a bit i got this to work:
User.find()
.where({id: users})
.exec(function (err, response) {
// do stuff
});
OTHER TIPS
This can be done by using the MongoDB query inside the sails using the native function. This native function allows the sails to run the database queries.
User.native(function(err, response) {
response.find({ qty: { $in: [ 5, 15 ] } })
}).toArray(function (err, results) {
//return the result
})
