How do I check whether there is a thread containing only the sender (user
1) and the recipient (user 2), and no other users.
models.py
class Thread(models.Model):
user = models.ManyToManyField(User)
is_hidden = models.ManyToManyField(User,
related_name='hidden_thread', blank=True)
class Message(models.Model):
thread = models.ForeignKey(Thread)
sent_date = models.DateTimeField(default=datetime.now)
sender = models.ForeignKey(User)
body = models.TextField()
is_hidden = models.ManyToManyField(User,
related_name='hidden_message', blank=True)
I tried
>>> Thread.objects.filter(user=user1&user2)
>>> Thread.objects.filter(user=user1|user2)
# Both gave me an error: Unsupported operand.
# Then this
>>> Thread.objects.filter(Q(user=user1) & Q(user=user2))
# Which gave me no threads at all.
# Then this
>>> Thread.objects.filter(Q(user=user1) | Q(user=user2)).distinct()
# Gave me threads of both the users.
What I want is to check the thread, with the specified users only. Suppose,
User 1 wants to send a message to User 2. What I want is, first check
whether there is a thread between both the users. If there is, get that
thread, or else create a new one. How is it possible? What is the best way
to do it. Please help me. Thank you.
And please tell me what's the difference between | and &? Because I had
very different results with these two.
