Django: Adding “NULLS LAST” to query

Question

I would like to sort a model by using Postgresql\'s \"NULLS LAST\" option. How could it be done?

I tried something like

MyModel.objects.all().extra(ord

Answer 1

We wanted to chain multiple order by statements, some ASC, some DESC all with NULLS LAST. There doesn't seem to be the possibility of this with order_by as it has the following call:

obj.query.clear_ordering(force_empty=False)

So you can do it with the following by appending add_ordering calls:

qs = ATeamModel.objects.filter(whatever=1)
qs.query.add_ordering(F('date_updated').desc(nulls_last=True))
qs.query.add_ordering(F('date_created').desc(nulls_last=True))

qs...
