Re: Django values_list queryset returns queryset object instead of list

[Andréas Kühne]

HI Santhosh,

This is expected behaviour because it is a queryset until you query the results - or iterate over them.

For example:

for item in View.objects.all().values_list('name',flat=True).order_by('id'):
  print(item)

will iterate over the list of values. BUT if you want to evaluate the list directly you can do this:

views = list(View.objects.all().values_list('name',flat=True).order_by('id'))

And you will have a regular list.

Regards,

Andréas

Hi,

I have a table named View, I'm filtering values like this : views = View.objects.all().values_list('name',flat=True).order_by('id')

I get the output as <QuerySet ['lib', 'lef', 'models', 'datasheet', 'layout', 'gds', 'netlist', 'gds2def', 'symbol']> instead of list of the names. So I face error when try to parse it in jquery : jQuery.parseJSON(JSON.stringify("{{views|safe}}".replace(/&#39;/g, '"').replace(/u&quot;/g, '"').replace(/&quot;/g, '"'))); it gives me the result as  ------ > <QuerySet ['lib', 'lef', 'models', 'datasheet', 'layout', 'gds', 'netlist', 'gds2def', 'symbol']> .

How to fix this? Appreciating any help.

Regards,

Santhosh
