<p>What follows are examples of operations that can be performed using the Python
API facilities.</p>
<p>Create a couple of Places:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p1</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">Place</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'Demon Dogs'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">address</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'944 W. Fullerton'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">save</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p2</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">Place</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'Ace Hardware'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">address</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'1013 N. Ashland'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p2</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">save</span><span class="p">()</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Create a Restaurant. Pass the ID of the “parent” object as this object’s ID:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">place</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">serves_hot_dogs</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="bp">True</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="n">serves_pizza</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="bp">False</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">save</span><span class="p">()</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>A Restaurant can access its place:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">place</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Demon Dogs the place></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>A Place can access its restaurant, if available:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">restaurant</span>
<span class="go"><Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>p2 doesn’t have an associated restaurant:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="kn">from</span> <span class="nn">django.core.exceptions</span> <span class="kn">import</span> <span class="n">ObjectDoesNotExist</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="k">try</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span> <span class="n">p2</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">restaurant</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="k">except</span> <span class="n">ObjectDoesNotExist</span><span class="p">:</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span> <span class="k">print</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">"There is no restaurant here."</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go">There is no restaurant here.</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>You can also use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hasattr</span></tt> to avoid the need for exception catching:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="nb">hasattr</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">p2</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'restaurant'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go">False</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Set the place using assignment notation. Because place is the primary key on
Restaurant, the save will create a new restaurant:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">place</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">p2</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">save</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p2</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">restaurant</span>
<span class="go"><Restaurant: Ace Hardware the restaurant></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">place</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Ace Hardware the place></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Set the place back again, using assignment in the reverse direction:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">restaurant</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">r</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">restaurant</span>
<span class="go"><Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Restaurant.objects.all() just returns the Restaurants, not the Places. Note
that there are two restaurants - Ace Hardware the Restaurant was created in the
call to r.place = p2:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">all</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="go">[<Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant>, <Restaurant: Ace Hardware the restaurant>]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Place.objects.all() returns all Places, regardless of whether they have
Restaurants:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Place</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">order_by</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'name'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go">[<Place: Ace Hardware the place>, <Place: Demon Dogs the place>]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>You can query the models using <a class="reference internal" href="../queries.html#lookups-that-span-relationships"><em>lookups across relationships</em></a>:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">place</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">place__pk</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">filter</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">place__name__startswith</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">"Demon"</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go">[<Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant>]</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Restaurant</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">exclude</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">place__address__contains</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">"Ashland"</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go">[<Restaurant: Demon Dogs the restaurant>]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This of course works in reverse:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Place</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">pk</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">1</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Demon Dogs the place></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Place</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">restaurant__place__exact</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Demon Dogs the place></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Place</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">restaurant</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">r</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Demon Dogs the place></span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Place</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">get</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">restaurant__place__name__startswith</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">"Demon"</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="go"><Place: Demon Dogs the place></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Add a Waiter to the Restaurant:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">w</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="n">r</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">waiter_set</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">create</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">name</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="s">'Joe'</span><span class="p">)</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">w</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">save</span><span class="p">()</span>
<span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">w</span>
<span class="go"><Waiter: Joe the waiter at Demon Dogs the restaurant></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Query the waiters:</p>
<div class="highlight-pycon"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="gp">>>> </span><span class="n">Waiter</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">objects</span><span class="o">.</span><span class="n">filter</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="n">restaurant__place</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="n">p1</span><span class="p">)</span>
