Cms: Use distinct() on element queries

[carlcs]

Description

It looks like it’s currently not possible to use the distinct() method on element queries. I wonder if I’m approaching this the wrong way or if it’s simply not possible right now.

{% set plainTexts = craft.entries()
    .select('field_plainText')
    .distinct()
    .column() %}

Additional info

• Craft version: 3.0.0-RC9

Added distinct() support for RC10. Note that you will most likely need to clear out the default orderBy param as well:

{% set plainTexts = craft.entries()
    .select('field_plainText')
    .distinct()
    .orderBy(null)
    .column() %}
