pkcolumns
property
¶
Returns a sequence of primary key column names for the model class associated with this queryset.
This property directly delegates to the pkcolumns property of the
model_class, providing access to the underlying database column names
that constitute the primary key.
| RETURNS | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
Sequence[str]
|
Sequence[str]: A sequence (e.g., list or tuple) of strings, where each string is the name of a primary key column in the database. |

using
¶
Enables and switches the database schema and/or database connection for the queryset.
This method creates a new QuerySet instance that operates within the specified database and/or schema context. It's designed to support multi-tenancy by allowing dynamic selection of the database or schema without modifying the original QuerySet.

prefetch_related
¶
Performs a reverse lookup for foreign keys and other relationships, populating results onto the main model instances.
This method is distinct from select_related in that select_related
performs a SQL JOIN to fetch related data in the same query, whereas
prefetch_related executes separate queries for each relationship
and then joins the results in Python. This is particularly useful for
many-to-many relationships or reverse foreign key lookups, or when
preloading related objects for a large set of parent objects.

¶
Returns a QuerySet that will “follow” foreign-key relationships, selecting additional related-object data when it executes its query.
This is a performance booster which results in a single more complex query but means
The later use of foreign-key relationships won't require database queries.
| PARAMETER | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
*related
|
Relationship names to eager load. Supports '__' for nested relationships.
TYPE:
|
Kwargs:
sparse (bool): Shall only retrieve the for traversal neccessary columns of intermediate path parts
(new behavior)?
If False we retrieve the full columns of intermediate path parts like before.
Defaults currently to False but will switch to True in future.

a flat list of values for a single field.

exists

¶
Returns a boolean indicating if one or more records matching the QuerySet's criteria exists.
If keyword arguments are provided, it first checks the cache for an existence match.
| PARAMETER | DESCRIPTION |

count
async
¶
Executes a SELECT COUNT statement and returns the total number of records matching the query.
The result is cached internally to prevent redundant database calls for subsequent counts.
For queries that may produce duplicate rows at the SQL level (e.g. OR across joined relations, select_related joins, GROUP BY), this method counts DISTINCT primary keys to reflect the number of unique model instances rather than raw joined rows.

update
async
¶
Updates records in a specific table with the given keyword arguments, matching the QuerySet's filters.
This performs a database-level update operation without fetching and saving model instances.
Warning:
- Does not execute instance-level pre_save_callback/post_save_callback hooks.
- Values are processed directly for column mapping and validation but do not pass through model instance saving.
| PARAMETER | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|
**kwargs
|
The field names and new values to apply to the matching records.
TYPE:
