Question

For a Queryset in Django, we can call its method .query to get the raw sql.

for example,

queryset = AModel.objects.all()
print queryset.query

the output could be: SELECT “id”, … FROM “amodel”

But for retrieving a object by “get”, say,

item = AModel.objects.get(id = 100)

how to get the equivalent raw sql? Notice: the item might be None.

Answer 1

The item = AModel.objects.get(id = 100) equals to

items = AModel.objects.filter(id = 100)
if len(items) == 1:
    return items[0]
else:
    raise exception

Thus the executed query equals to AModel.objects.filter(id = 100)

Also, you could check the latest item of connection.queries

from django.db import connection # use connections for non-default dbs
print connection.queries[-1]
