No, there is no way to do what you want. All filters are implemented as filters in the DB, Django doesn't know how to execute them in Python. There was some effort to implement filters also in Python, but there hasn't been any activity on this recently.
The only way to do this currently is to implement the filtering logic in Python yourself. - Anssi On Wednesday, April 9, 2014 8:33:16 AM UTC+3, Jill Green wrote: > > I apologize if this question has already been asked and answered.
