How to achieve bulk soft delete in django?

[Sencer Hamarat]

Hi,

The models delete methods overridden by default and has a soft delete mechanizm.

I need to add bulk soft delete to the application. I can achieve this with iterating over objects to call the soft delete method. But the actual need is, soft delete objects filtered by id in bulk way.

Can I do it without iterating the object list?

Regards,

Add a soft delete method to a custom QuerySet, then use that as a custom Manager for your model.
