[3.1.x] Modernized custom manager example
Since this example was added 15 years ago ina8ccdd0fcd
, the ORM has gained the ability to do the `COUNT(*)` related query, so do it with the ORM to avoid misleading users that raw SQL is only supported from manager methods. Backport of59e503b670

@ -55,47 +55,34 @@ functionality to your models. (For "row-level" functionality -- i.e., functions
|

that act on a single instance of a model object -- use :ref:`Model methods

<model-methods>`, not custom ``Manager`` methods.)
|
||||
|
||||
A custom ``Manager`` method can return anything you want. It doesn't have to
|
||||
return a ``QuerySet``.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, this custom ``Manager`` offers a method ``with_counts()``, which
|
||||
returns a list of all ``OpinionPoll`` objects, each with an extra
|
||||
``num_responses`` attribute that is the result of an aggregate query::
|
||||
For example, this custom ``Manager`` adds a method ``with_counts()``::
|
||||
|
||||
from django.db import models
|
||||
from django.db.models.functions import Coalesce
|
||||
|
||||
class PollManager(models.Manager):
|
||||
def with_counts(self):
|
||||
from django.db import connection
|
||||
with connection.cursor() as cursor:
|
||||
cursor.execute("""
|
||||
SELECT p.id, p.question, p.poll_date, COUNT(*)
|
||||
FROM polls_opinionpoll p, polls_response r
|
||||
WHERE p.id = r.poll_id
|
||||
GROUP BY p.id, p.question, p.poll_date
|
||||
ORDER BY p.poll_date DESC""")
|
||||
result_list = []
|
||||
for row in cursor.fetchall():
|
||||
p = self.model(id=row[0], question=row[1], poll_date=row[2])
|
||||
p.num_responses = row[3]
|
||||
result_list.append(p)
|
||||
return result_list
|
||||
return self.annotate(
|
||||
num_responses=Coalesce(models.Count("response"), 0)
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
class OpinionPoll(models.Model):
|
||||
question = models.CharField(max_length=200)
|
||||
poll_date = models.DateField()
|
||||
objects = PollManager()
|
||||
|
||||
class Response(models.Model):
|
||||
poll = models.ForeignKey(OpinionPoll, on_delete=models.CASCADE)
|
||||
person_name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
|
||||
response = models.TextField()
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
|
||||
With this example, you'd use ``OpinionPoll.objects.with_counts()`` to return
|
||||
that list of ``OpinionPoll`` objects with ``num_responses`` attributes.
|
||||
With this example, you'd use ``OpinionPoll.objects.with_counts()`` to get a
|
||||
``QuerySet`` of ``OpinionPoll`` objects with the extra ``num_responses``
|
||||
attribute attached.
|
||||
|
||||
Another thing to note about this example is that ``Manager`` methods can
|
||||
access ``self.model`` to get the model class to which they're attached.
