Question

I need to make special request to database through django.

For example:

class Model(models.Model):
     name=models.CharField()
     date=models.DateTimeField()
     other=models.TextField()

How do I ask for row which name containe word 'Hello' (it shoul ignor register of first letter)
end it is must be in diapason of date, for example between 2005.08.09 and 2005.08.11?

Answer 1

Try the following:

start_date = datetime.date(2005, 8, 9)
end_date = datetime.date(2005, 8, 11)
Model.objects.filter(name__icontains="hello").filter(date__range(start_date,end_date))

You can stack as many filters as you like and it will be built into a single SQL Query (or whatever database system you use)
