I'm used to writing SQL statements like:delete from app_things where type = 'foo'; to delete a number of objects at once. I don't see a way to do this type of delete in Django. I was hoping for something like: things.delete(type__exact='foo') Certainly I could do this: for t in things.get_list(type__exact='foo'): t.delete() but this incurs a lot more database activity. Have I overlooked something?
Nope - *we've* overlooked something; this totally should be possible. I've opened a ticket so we can keep track of this (http:// code.djangoproject.com/ticket/1219).
