How can I chain Django's “in” and “iexact” queryset field lookups?

Question

I have a list of names, e.g.:

name_list = [\'Alpha\', \'bEtA\', \'omegA\']

Currently I have the following queryset:

MyModel         


        

Answer 1

Here's my solution, which uses Q objects instead:

name_list = ['Alpha', 'bEtA', 'omegA']
q_list = map(lambda n: Q(name__iexact=n), name_list)
q_list = reduce(lambda a, b: a | b, q_list)
MyModel.objects.filter(q_list)
