I want to fetch a list of items in my database, and I have their id
ready:
my_ids_to_get = [ 1, 3, 2, ]

In mysql I would fetch them like this:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE id IN (1, 3, 2) ORDER BY FIELD( id, 1, 3,
2 )

This would preserve their order.

Can I build this query with the native django order_by?

I can get the objects like this:
MyObject.objects.filter(pk__in=my_ids_to_get)
But I'm not able to build an order clause to use with it, and their
order is not preserved.

Do I have to fall back on raw sql to do this?
