ZF2 Doctrine with Symfony < OR null query - symfony

Question

How do I write this "WHERE" condition in a way which is compatible with Doctrine?
( ( `translations_es_google`.`translation_date` < `translations_masters`.`translation_date` ) OR ( `translations_es_google`.`translation_date` is null ) )
What I have tried (unsuccessfully) are:
$query1
->andWhere('((t.translationDate < m.translationDate) OR (t.translationDate is NULL))');
$query1
->andWhere('(t.translationDate < m.translationDate) OR (t.translationDate is NULL)');
Table alias for the Doctrine query are
t represents the table translations_es_google
m represents the table translations_masters
When I remove this "andWhere" condition the rest of the QueryBuilder query executes as expected.
The query I am trying to execute is
SELECT
`translations_masters`.`translation_key` , `translations_masters`.`text_domain` , `translations_masters`.`translation_date`
FROM
`translations_masters`
LEFT JOIN
`translations_es_google` ON ( ( `translations_masters`.`text_domain` = `translations_es_google`.`text_domain` ) AND ( `translations_masters`.`translation_key` =`translations_es_google`.`translation_key` ) )
WHERE
`translations_masters`.`language_iso` NOT LIKE 'es-Google' AND ( ( `translations_es_google`.`translation_date` < `translations_masters`.`translation_date` ) OR ( `translations_es_google`.`translation_date` is null ) )
GROUP BY
`translations_masters`.`translation_key` , `translations_masters`.`text_domain`
ORDER BY
`translations_masters`.`translation_date` ASC
As requested the QueryBuilder version of this query is:
$query1 = $this->entityManager
->createQueryBuilder()
->select('m.textDomain , m.translationKey , m.translationDate , m.translationDate AS translationMasterDate , t.translationDate')
->from(
'AMDatabase\Entity\TheVerse\Translations' . $explode1 . $explode2,
't'
)
->leftJoin(
'AMDatabase\Entity\TheVerse\TranslationsMasters',
'm',
Join::WITH,
'(m.textDomain = t.textDomain) AND (m.translationKey = t.translationKey)'
)
->groupBy('m.textDomain , m.translationKey')
->orderBy(
'm.translationDate',
'ASC'
)
->setMaxResults('1');
$query1
->andWhere(
$query1->expr()
->notLike(
'm.languageIso',
':languageIso'
)
)
->setParameter(
'languageIso',
$value
);
$query1->andWhere(
$query1->expr()->orX(
't.translationDate < m.translationDate',
't.translationDate IS NULL'
)
);
$result1 = $query1->getQuery()
->getArrayResult();
The output of $query1->getQuery()->getSQL() is
SELECT
t0_.text_domain AS text_domain_0, t0_.translation_key AS translation_key_1, t0_.translation_date AS translation_date_2, t0_.translation_date AS translation_date_3, t1_.translation_date AS translation_date_4
FROM
thev1010_theverseoftheday.translations_es_google t1_
LEFT JOIN
thev1010_theverseoftheday.translations_masters t0_ ON ((t0_.text_domain = t1_.text_domain) AND (t0_.translation_key = t1_.translation_key))
WHERE
t0_.language_iso NOT LIKE ? AND (t1_.translation_date < t0_.translation_date OR t1_.translation_date IS NULL)
GROUP BY
t0_.text_domain, t0_.translation_key
ORDER BY
t0_.translation_date ASC
LIMIT 1
The ? value is 'es-Google'
The output of $query1->getQuery()->getDQL(); is
SELECT
m.textDomain , m.translationKey , m.translationDate , m.translationDate AS translationMasterDate , t.translationDate
FROM
AMDatabase\Entity\TheVerse\TranslationsEsGoogle t
LEFT JOIN
AMDatabase\Entity\TheVerse\TranslationsMasters m WITH (m.textDomain = t.textDomain) AND (m.translationKey = t.translationKey)
WHERE
m.languageIso NOT LIKE :languageIso AND (t.translationDate < m.translationDate OR t.translationDate IS NULL)
GROUP BY
m.textDomain , m.translationKey
ORDER BY
m.translationDate ASC
The ? value is 'es-Google'

How about orX expression?
You can try it this way:
$query1->andWhere(
$query1->expr()->orxX(
't.translationDate < m.translationDate',
't.translationDate IS NULL'
)
);
orX gives you the ability to add multiple conditions, separated by comma.
You can also separate your orX condition to its own variable and pass everything added to it to andWhere condition.
