Question

I know that you can output the SQL to see tables that are created. Is it possible for Django to output the sql used for any query like:

Protocols.objects.filter(active=False)

? I couldn’t find this in the docs, so hopefully someone can point them to me, if in fact Django can do this.

Answer 1

See Django FAQ: How can I see the raw SQL queries Django is running?:

>>> from django.db import connection    
>>> connection.queries = []
>>> Protocols.objects.filter(active=False)
>>> print(connection.queries)
