将SQL转换为Eloquent Query Builder：Laravel5.5

Question

How can I convert this SQL to Laravel5.5 Eloquent format

select * from 'arm_articles' where ('article_tag' like '%standard%' or 'article_topic' like '%standard%' or 'article_details' like '%standard%' or 'article_type' like '%standard%') and ( ('id' between 287 and 296) and 'article_active' = 1) order by 'id' desc

Please observer the braces in the SQL

This is the one i wrote that returns a different sql when i tested the output using ->toSql

$post= PostModel::where('article_tag','like','%'.$contributor_id.'%')->orWhere('article_topic','like','%'.$contributor_id.'%')->orWhere('article_details','like','%'.$contributor_id.'%')->orWhere('article_type','like','%'.$contributor_id.'%')->whereBetween('id', [$end, $start-1])->where('article_active',1)->orderBy('id', 'desc')->take(10)->get();

Find the SQL output from the query above

select * from 'arm_articles' where 'article_tag' like ? or 'article_topic' like ? or 'article_details' like ? or 'article_type' like ? and 'id' between ? and ? and 'article_active' = ? order by 'id' desc limit 10

This output looks like the needed SQL, but the different is the braces on the SQL. so one coin the Eloquent Query Builder to come out with the braces on the query ?

Use the where() closure for parameter grouping:

PostModel::where(function($q) use($contributor_id) {
        $q->where('article_tag', 'like', '%' . $contributor_id . '%')
          ->orWhere('article_topic', 'like', '%' . $contributor_id . '%')
          ->orWhere('article_details', 'like', '%' . $contributor_id . '%')
          ->orWhere('article_type', 'like', '%' . $contributor_id . '%');
    })
    ->whereBetween('id', [$end, $start - 1])
    ->where('article_active', 1)
    ->orderBy('id', 'desc')
    ->take(10)
    ->get();
