Django model utilities for encouraging direct data access instead of unnecessary object overhead. Implemented through compatible method and operator extensions to QuerySets and Managers.
The goal is to provide elegant syntactic support for best practices in using Django's ORM. Specifically avoiding the inefficiencies and race conditions associated with always using objects.
Usage
Typical model usage is verbose, inefficient, and incorrect.
book = Book.objects.get(pk=pk)
book.rating = 5.0
book.save()
The correct method is generally supported, but arguably less readable.
Book.objects.filter(pk=pk).update(rating=5.0)
model_values encourages the better approach with operator support.
Book.objects[pk]["rating"] = 5.0
Similarly for queries:
(book.rating for book in books)
books.values_list("rating", flat=True)
books["rating"]
Column-oriented syntax is common in panel data layers, and the greater expressiveness cascades. QuerySets also support aggregation and conditionals.
books.values_list("rating", flat=True).filter(rating__gt=0)
books["rating"] > 0
books.aggregate(models.Avg("rating"))["rating__avg"]
books["rating"].mean()
Managers provide a variety of efficient primary key based utilities. To enable, instantiate the Manager in your models. As with any custom Manager, it doesn't have to be named objects, but it is designed to be a 100% compatible replacement.
from model_values import Manager
class Book(models.Model):
...
objects = Manager()
F expressions are also enhanced, and can be used directly without model changes.
from model_values import F
.filter(rating__gt=0, last_modified__range=(start, end))
.filter(F.rating > 0, F.last_modified.range(start, end))
