I opened a ticket for this problem.
In a nutshell here is my model:
class Plan(models.Model):
cap = models.IntegerField()
class Phone(models.Model):
plan = models.ForeignKey(Plan, related_name='phones')
class Call(models.Model):
phone = models.ForeignKey(Phone, related_name='calls')
cost = models.IntegerField()
I want to run a query like this one:
Phone.objects.annotate(total_cost=Sum('calls__cost')).filter(total_cost__gte=0.5*F('plan__cap'))
Unfortunately Django generates bad SQL:
SELECT "app_phone"."id", "app_phone"."plan_id",
SUM("app_call"."cost") AS "total_cost"
FROM "app_phone"
INNER JOIN "app_plan" ON ("app_phone"."plan_id" = "app_plan"."id")
LEFT OUTER JOIN "app_call" ON ("app_phone"."id" = "app_call"."phone_id")
GROUP BY "app_phone"."id", "app_phone"."plan_id"
HAVING SUM("app_call"."cost") >= 0.5 * "app_plan"."cap"
and errors with:
ProgrammingError: column "app_plan.cap" must appear in the GROUP BY clause or be used in an aggregate function
LINE 1: ...."plan_id" HAVING SUM("app_call"."cost") >= 0.5 * "app_plan"....
Is there any workaround apart from running raw SQL?
