Hello, i just have on doubt, is about code design, i have this case:

  def searched_for?(user_id, term) do
    search_length = from(se in Project.Search, 
                         where: ilike(se.keywords, ^"%#{term}%") and se.user_id == ^user_id, 
                         select: se.id)
      |> Project.Repo.all
      |> length
    search_length > 0
  end

As your guys can see i needed create the variable search_length to compare in the final result, have some way to put arythmetic operators in the pipe operator ? i tried |> >(0) and |> != 0 but without succeded.
