django
Hi all, I have been lurking and learning in here for a while. Now i have a problem that somehow i cannot see an easy solution. In order to learn django i am bulding an app that basically keeps track of booked items. What I would like to do is to show how many days per month for a selected year one item has been booked.
i have the following models:
Asset(Model)
BookedAsset(Model):
asset = models.ForeignKey(Asset)
startdate = models.DateField()
enddate = models.DateField()
So having the following entries:
asset 1, 2010-02-11, 2010-02-13
asset 2, 2010-03-12, 2010-03-14
asset 1, 2010-04-30, 2010-05-01
I would like to get returned the following:
asset 1 asset 2
------- -------
Jan = 0 Jan = 0
Feb = 2 Feb = 0
Mar = 0 Mar = 2
Apr = 1 Apr = 0
May = 1 May = 0
Jun = 0 Jun = 0
Jul = 0 Jul = 0
Aug = 0 Aug = 0
Sep = 0 Sep = 0
Oct = 0 Oct = 0
Nov = 0 Nov = 0
Dec = 0 Dec = 0
I know i need to first get the number of days in a date range (and keep track if they fall out of the current month and into the next month) and then do an agregate on the number of days. I am just stuck on how to do it elegantly in Django.
Any help (or hint in the right direction) is greatly appreciated.
