According to the docs, when using 'contains' in filter() a percent sign
or underscore is automatically escaped. However, in my case I want the
resulting SQL to use the percent sign.
I know 'contains' will fill in the outside percent signs, but it escapes
the percent sign in my string. So that calling:
Entry.objects.filter(headline__contains='a%b')
will result in:
SELECT ... WHERE headline LIKE '%a\%b%';
but I want it to be this instead:
SELECT ... WHERE headline LIKE '%a%b%';
This there an easy way to do this?
I could use regexp, but I didn't want people to know that they would
have to use "a.*b" instead of "a*b", just trying to make it simplier for
myself and the people using the system.
