Hi! Thanks for trying out django-readers 😎
I think the question isn't really readers-specific: readers just uses prefetch_related
to load relationships, so what you need to be able to do is prefetch a limited number of objects. This article suggests a few ways to do it, involving OuterRef
and Subquery
. If you can get this to work with "just" your queryset (ie without readers) then it should be fairly straightforward to convert this into a reader pair.
I'll leave this ticket open because I'm very interested to hear how you get on!
Hi,
Just trying to get my head around what is and isn't supported, the use case I'm after would be something like an
Author
with manyBook
s, and writing a spec to show the author and the top 5 books by some ordering criteria.I tried a couple of approaches to no avail:
slice
pair which usedQuerySet.__getitem__
to mimic slicing, but I think that won't work in general if there are other filters to be applied to the overall querysetrow_number
also did not work because one cannot filter on a window functionLet me know if you would prefer questions to be asked on a different platform.
Thanks for the library.
