How to use OR using Django's model filter system?

Question

It seems that Django\'s object model filter method automatically uses the AND SQL keyword.

For example:

>>> Publisher.objects.filter(name__         


        

Answer 1

You can use Q objects to do what you want, by bitwise OR-ing them together:

from django.db.models import Q
Publisher.objects.filter(Q(name__contains="press") | Q(country__contains="U.S.A"))
