Description (last modified by Luke Plant)

I wish there were a way to do instead of this:

MyModel.objects.values('otherfield__anotherjoinedfield__blah__derp__foo__doop')
{'otherfield__anotherjoinedfield__blah__derp__foo__doop': 4, 'otherfield__anotherjoinedfield__blah__derp__foo__doop': 5, [...]

you could do this:

MyModel.objects.values(val='otherfield__anotherjoinedfield__blah__derp__foo__doop')
{'val': 4, 'val': 5, [...]

  1. Please use preview.
  2. I think you're looking for ​!__in.

Sorry I didn't realize it would change the formatting. I'd fix it if I could but I can't figure out how to edit it.

"__in" has nothing to do with what the ticket was about. You know how you can rename an annotation by doing .annotate(name=Sum('field'))? Well that functionality should exist for values() as well.

For what it's worth, I also think this would be useful...

I think Russell misread the ticket, probably due to lack of formatting. It sounds like a reasonable idea, and API seems OK.

This is a duplicate of #16735.

I'm closing this one because the other one seems to have more activity.
