Sorry, I meant to send this to the list.
If it's small enough, you can just do a standard python sort:
def sort_function(x, y):
return cmp(x.calculated_field, y.calculated_field)
query_list = list(queryset)
query_list.sort(sort_function)
If you want to use a Schwartzian transform for efficiency, just put it
in a list:
query_list = [(x.calculated_field, x) for x in queryset]
query_list.sort()
query_list = [x[1] for x in query_list]
All of these solutions, however, do not scale as well as they would if
you could express them in SQL.
Cheers,
Mike Axiak
