Re: Why Django Model Filter Returns Model Object Instance Instead of QuerySet?

I posted in the original problem.

How is that a problem? What's wrong with it? 

 

Right now, I can get what I need by doing this:

      qs = CsInvHold.objects.filter(inventory_ok=0)
       if qs:
           cs_list.append(['','Customer Synch Data On Hold Due To
Missing From AMR Inventory', ''])
           cs_list.append(['PremiseID', 'Endpoint ID', 'Date
Entered'])

           for each_q in qs:
               cs_list.append([str(each_q.premiseid),
int(each_q.endpointid), str(each_q.last_update)])

I want to get the entire result set without iteration through the
columns.

What does that mean?

You iterate through the members of the queryset, not the columns. Then you append a list consisting of various elements from each field in that member. What is wrong with this? What do you actually want to achieve and in what way does this not fulfill your requirement? 

 

In addition from what I read in the documentation, I was supposed to
get a QuerySet returned on a filter, not a model object reference.
I'm not sure why this is happening. 

Why *what* is happening?
