Hi Tone, Either I misunderstand the docs, or I misunderstand how this can be useful to me. Or this is not particularly useful to me.
B.objects.extra(select={'foo': 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM app_a WHERE b_id=app_b.id'}, where=['`foo` > 0']) generates a SQL query: SELECT `app_b`.`id`,(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM app_a WHERE b_id=app_b.id) AS `foo` FROM `app_b` WHERE `foo` > 0 ... which MySQL says is invalid (OperationalError: (1054, "Unknown column 'foo' in 'where clause'")). Similarly, B.objects.extra(select={'foo': 'SELECT COUNT(*) as c FROM app_a WHERE b_id=app_b.id and c > 0'}) Generates: SELECT `app_b`.`id`,(SELECT COUNT(*) as c FROM app_a WHERE b_id=app_b.id and c > 0) AS `foo` FROM `app_b` Which gives: OperationalError: (1054, "Unknown column 'c' in 'where clause'") So... I don't think I can do this with subselects (at least with MySQL?), I need to be able to use an OUTER JOIN.
