DateTime comparison in query

Hey there,

I have this code:

from(
      ge in query,
      join: e in assoc(ge, :event),
      where: e.start_date <= ^date
    )

As we know this can cause problems because of the date/datetime comparisons as it is described here for example : https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Date.html

my questions is then how could I use DateTime.compare/2 with e.start_date here as the first argument?

As far as I remember, ecto does translate this into proper comparison on the SQL level, and the DateDtime struct isn’t actually involved in the comparison.
