escaping for objects.raw()

Question

I need a custom SQL query and try to use this:

Log.objects.raw(\"SELECT pub_date FROM foo_log GROUP BY DATE_FORMAT(pub_date,\'%Y%m%d\')\")

Answer 1

Rather then raw SQL you could use dates for the above query.

Log.objects.dates('pub_date', 'day')

would return all the distinct dates by y/m/d
