Shortcut method which handles a pythonic LEFT OUTER JOIN.
from dbutils.helpers import attach_foreignkey
qs = list(Model.objects.all())
attach_foreignkey(qs, Model.author)Shortcut method which stores a group of results as a dictionary by the key you specify (or primary key by default).
from dbutils.helpers import queryset_to_dict
qs = Model.objects.all()
queryset_to_dict(qs, 'author_id')A QuerySet which eliminates the in-memory result cache.
from dbutils.querysets import SkinnyQuerySet
for foo in SkinnyQuerySet(Model):
print foo(See also: RangeQuerySetWrapper)
Iterates through a result set using MIN/MAX on primary key and stepping through.
Very efficient, but ORDER BY statements will not work.
from dbutils.querysets import RangeQuerySet
for foo in RangeQuerySet(Model):
print fooIterates through a QuerySet using limit and offset.
For efficiency use RangeQuerySetWrapper.
from dbutils.querysets import IterableQuerySetWrapper
for foo in IterableQuerySetWrapper(Model.objects.all()):
print foo
