Hello all. The docs say about QuerySet.create [1]: """ This is equivalent to (but much simpler than):
>>> b = Blog.objects.get(id=1) >>> e = Entry( .... blog=b, .... headline='Hello', .... body_text='Hi', .... pub_date=datetime.date(2005, 1, 1) .... ) >>> e.save() """ I was trying to use create() with list of dicts representing rows that may or may not exist yet (some have ids and some don't) and hoping to get the insert-or-update behavior of save() [2]. Unfortunately (for me) it looks like QuerySet.create() passes force_insert=True [3]. It's entirely sane that a method called create() would only do inserts. If that's the case, the doc can be updated to reflect that, and ... would anyone else find it useful to have a method on QuerySet that behaves the way I thought create() did? Something like QuerySet.save(**kw)? Thanks!
