Django Haystack - Filter by substring of a field using SearchQuerySet ()

Question

I have a Django project that uses SOLR for indexing.

I\'m trying to do a substring search using Haystack\'s SearchQuerySet

Answer 1

That could be done using EdgeNgramField field:

some_field = indexes.EdgeNgramField() # also prepare value for this field or use model_attr

Then for partial match:

SearchQuerySet().all().filter(some_field='ear')
