Method Expressions

A method expression is made up of the prefixes: findBy, findAllBy, countBy followed by the expression that combines a query upon one or more properties:
User.findBy{property}[Conditional=equal][Operator]?{property}[Conditional][Operator]
User.findAllBy{property}[Conditional=equal][Operator]?{property}[Conditional][Operator]
User.countBy{property}[Conditional=equal][Operator]?{property}[Conditional][Operator]
If a conditional keyword is not passed, we assume you want equality. Remember that!
IMPORTANT: The ? means that you can concatenate the same pattern over and over again.
