    1.contains('arraycol',["a","b"]) // You can use a javascript array for an array column
    2.contains('arraycol','{"a","b"}') // You can use a string with Postgres array {} for array column.
    3.contains('rangecol','(1,2]') // Use Postgres range syntax for range column.
    4.contains('rangecol',`(${arr}]`) // You can insert an array into a string.
