Question

I would like to do something like this:

entries = Entry.objects.filter(created_at__in = current_week())

How to make it for good performance. Thanks!

Edit: I still have no idea for current_week() function.

Answer 1

Use __range. You’ll need to actually calculate the beginning and end of the week first:

import datetime
date = datetime.date.today()
start_week = date - datetime.timedelta(date.weekday())
end_week = start_week + datetime.timedelta(7)
entries = Entry.objects.filter(created_at__range=[start_week, end_week])
