Django filter () type documentation

Question

I have looked at the Django and Googled documentation for every phrase difference, but I cannot find documentation that accurately describes the behavior of lookuptypes.

app.objects.filter(column__lookuptype=criteria) 

I found documentation on which I can use lookuptypes, but not what they do and how to use them. For example, I don’t have a bloody clue what __gte does, but I cannot find good documentation about what it does.

Is there any documentation I missed?

Any pointers in the right direction are welcome. Thanks!

Answer 1

They are called "field searches" in Django. Field searches have fairly comprehensive documentation: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#id4

They are well documented:

• exact
• iexact
• contains
• icontains
• in
• gt
• gte
• lt
• lte
• startswith
• istartswith
• endswith
• iendswith
• range
• year
• month
• day
• week_day
• isnull
• search
• regex
• iregex
