django-querysetsequence adds helpers for treating multiple disparate ``QuerySet``
obejcts as a single ``QuerySet``. This is useful for passing into APIs that only
accepted a single ``QuerySet``.

The ``QuerySetSequence`` wrapper is used to combine multiple ``QuerySet`` instances.

Overview
========

``QuerySetSequence`` aims to provide the same behavior as Django's |QuerySets|_,
but applied across multiple ``QuerySet`` instances.

.. |QuerySets| replace:: ``QuerySets``
.. _QuerySets: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/

Supported features:

* Methods that take a list of fields (e.g. ``filter()``, ``exclude()``,
``get()``, ``order_by()``) must use fields that are common across all
sub-``QuerySets``.
* Relationships across related models work (e.g. ``'foo__bar'``, ``'foo'``, or
``'foo_id'``). syntax).
* The sub-``QuerySets`` are evaluated as late as possible (e.g. during
iteration, slicing, pickling, ``repr()``/``len()``/``list()``/``bool()``
calls).
* Public ``QuerySet`` API methods that are untested/unimplemented raise
``NotImplementedError``.

Getting Started
===============

Install the package using pip.

.. code-block:: bash

pip install --upgrade django-querysetsequence

Basic Usage
===========

.. code-block:: python

# Import QuerySetSequence
from queryset_sequence import QuerySetSequence

# Create QuerySets you want to chain.
from .models import SomeModel, OtherModel

# Chain them together.
query = QuerySetSequence(SomeModel.objects.all(), OtherModel.objects.all())

# Use query as if it were a QuerySet! E.g. in a ListView.
