Django filter queryset on “tuples” of values for multiple columns

Question

Say I have a model:

Class Person(models.Model):
    firstname = models.CharField()
    lastname = models.CharField()
    birthday = models.DateField()
    # etc.         


        

Answer 1

I don't see much solutions except for a big OR clause:

import operator
from itertools import izip
query = reduce(
    operator.or_, 
    (Q(firstname=fn, lastname=ln) for fn, ln in izip(first_list, last_list))
    )

Person.objects.filter(query)
