hi all I have a model like this (I intentionally replaced the details by dots):
class Family(...): name = ... # field contains non-unique values age = ... # model method to get children, here operations with another model are involved def getChildren(): return ... when I prepare data for custom view, I need to process like like this: def old(request): a = Family.objects.filter(age__gt=50) # then I need to apply getChildren() to all members of queryset a # the most the easiest way is b = [m.getChildren() for m in a] # then I pass it to template the questions are: 1. is it efficient way? 2. is it better for performance to send queryset to template? it does it matter? 3. if "yes" to 2nd question, how to form such queryset, taking into account need to execute model method? 4. if b contain non-unique values and I want to use .distinct() method, how to create a queryset instead of list? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
