I need to make a complex filter that implies to apply a function over a model property.

The equivalent SQL query is:

SELECT * FROM myModel_table t WHERE abs(t.field1 - :binding_value) <= 50

where binding_value is a numeric received from the client.

Is there any way to define a field lookup using a funcion? Or do I have to directly use the raw sql?

Thank you.

    In this case the best way would be to use Django’s queryset extra() method:

    MyModel.objects.extra(where=['abs(field1 - %s) <= 50'], params=[binding_value])
