Django order_by specific order

问题

Is it possible to replicate this kind of specific sql ordering in the django ORM:

order by

(case

    when id = 5 then 1

    when id = 2 then 2

    when id = 3 then 3

    when id = 1 then 4

    when id = 4 then 5

end) asc

回答1:

You could do it w/ extra() or more plain raw(), but they can not work well w/ more complex situation.

qs.extra(select={'o':'(case when id=5 then 1 when id=2 then 2 when id=3 then 3 when id=1 then 4 when id=4 then 5 end)', order_by='o'}

YourModel.raw('select ... order by (case ...)')

For your code, condition set is very limited, you could sort in Python easily.

Since Django 1.8 you have Conditional Expressions so using extra is not necessary anymore.

from django.db.models import Case, When, Value, IntegerField

SomeModel.objects.annotate(
    custom_order=Case(
        When(id=5, then=Value(1)),
        When(id=2, then=Value(2)),
        When(id=3, then=Value(3)),
        When(id=1, then=Value(4)),
        When(id=4, then=Value(5)),
        output_field=IntegerField(),
    )
).order_by('custom_order')

It is possible. Since Django 1.8 you can do in the following way:

from django.db.models import Case, When

ids = [5, 2, 3, 1, 4]
order = Case(*[When(id=id, then=pos) for pos, id in enumerate(ids)])
queryset = MyModel.objects.filter(id__in=ids).order_by(order)
