#28574: Add a Queryset.explain() method -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Tom | Owner: nobody Type: New | Status: new feature | Component: Database | Version: master layer (models, ORM) | Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: | Has patch: 0 Unreviewed | Needs documentation: 0 | Needs tests: 0 Patch needs improvement: 0 | Easy pickings: 0 UI/UX: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When diagnosing slow queries it would be handy to have an `explain` method on the queryset. Currently if you have a queryset that is performing slowly and you want to use your databases EXPLAIN query to see why, you have to print the querysets query attribute, copy and paste the often verbose string into a database shell, add the appropriate explain syntax, fix any parameters that may be missing and execute it. This can be quite annoying.
Every database that is supported in core supports this, usually by adding `EXPLAIN` before the query. Simply returning whatever the database gives you (which is vastly different per vendor and even version) could be a good improvement. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/28574> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
