Comment (by yoyoma):
bmispelon,
Correct. Running {{{isinstance(queryset)}}} should NOT evaluate the
queryset. However, placing {{{queryset}}} directly into the shell should
(e.g., the example that you said you tried - what version of
Django/Python/ipython are you running?).
The following was actually copy/pasted from my shell, this very moment:
{{{
In [4]: Answer.objects.distinct('text')
Out[4]:
In [5]: Answer.objects.distinct('query')
Out[5]:
In [6]: type(Answer.objects.distinct('query'))
Out[6]: django.db.models.query.QuerySet
}}}
Does that even look normal? Of course not. Unless an expression is
{{{None}}}, its shell representation is usually visible.
My model looks exactly like this:
{{{
class Answer(models.Model):
created_at = models.DateTimeField(
_('created at'),
default=timezone.now,
editable=False
)
updated_at = models.DateTimeField(_('updated at'), auto_now=True)
query = models.ForeignKey('queries.Query', verbose_name=_('query'))
text = models.TextField(_('text'))
}}}
There isn't a custom manager.
