Always True Q object

问题

I want to create some part of Django ORM filter query dinamicly, now I can do:

if some:
   Obj.filter(
       some_f1=some_v1,
       f1=v1,
       f2=v2,
       f3=v3,
       f4=v4,
       ...
   )
else:
   Obj.filter(
       f1=v1,
       f2=v2,
       f3=v3,
       f4=v4,
       ...
   )

I want something without code duplicate like this:

Obj.filter(
    Q(some_f1=some_v1) if some else True,  # what to use instead of True?
    f1=v1,
    f2=v2,
    f3=v3,
    f4=v4,
    ...
)

回答1:

Here's a hacky way to get an always true Q object:

always_true = ~Q(pk=None)

This depends on the fact that the primary key cannot be null.

回答2:

Try this;

conditions = {'f1':f1,'f2':f2, 'f3':f3}
if some:
    conditions['some_f1'] = some_v1

Obj.objects.filter(**conditions)

as Alasdair answered in comment:

Obj.filter(
    Q(some_f1=some_v1) if some else Q(), 
    f1=v1,
    f2=v2,
    f3=v3,
    f4=v4,
    ...
)

回答4:

Based on this answer we can make conditional argument passing

Obj.filter(
    *( (Q(some_f1=some_v1),) if some  else ()),    
    f1=v1,
    f2=v2,
    f3=v3,
    f4=v4,
    ...
)

So, if some is True we add tuple (Q(some_f1=some_v1),) to arguments list, in other case we add empty tuple (), also we need to wrap it in *(), as always when we passing tuple of non-keyword args

Since QuerySets are lazy, you can create the default filter, and then add others base on your conditions. Django won't run the query until the QuerySet is evaluated (for example, iterating through it in a for loop)

filtered_objects = Obj.filter(
    some_f1=some_v1,
    f1=v1,
    f2=v2,
    f3=v3,
    f4=v4,
    ...
)
if some:
    filtered_objects.filter(some_f1=some_v1)

An "always true" Q object is equivalent to No Q object when using AND (basic filter syntax; i.e. x and True == x), thus a DRYer alternative for your use case is as follows:

filters = dict(f1=v1,
               f2=v2,
               f3=v3,
               f4=v4,
               ...)
if some:
    filters['some_f1'] = some_v1

qs = obj.filter(**filters)

Modify according to your needs.
