In one of my apps, I need to check and see if a row already exists
based on a unique field. Currently, I'm doing something like the
following:
for photo in photos:
try:
row = Photo.objects.get(flickr_id=photo("id"))
# Raise exception if photo doesn't exist in our DB yet
except ObjectDoesNotExist:
[[[Make the object, etc]]]
However, raising an exception on "success" irks the part of me that
studied computer science for 3 years, so I'm wondering if anyone
knows of any other ways I might be able to achieve the above in a
better way.
Thanks,
Tyson
