Question

say I have such model:

class Foo(models.Model):
 name = models.CharField("name",max_length=25)
 type = models.IntegerField("type number")

after doing some query like Foo.objects.filter(), I want to group the query result as such:

[  [{"name":"jb","type:"whiskey"},{"name":"jack daniels","type:"whiskey"}],
[{"name":"absolute","type:"vodka"},{name:"smirnoff ":"vodka"}],
[{name:"tuborg","type":beer}]
]

So as you can see, grouping items as list of dictionaries. List of group query lists intead of dictionary would also be welcome 🙂

You can do the grouping in your view by using itertools.groupby().
