Hi all,
I have a problem with some code and I believe it is because of the expense of the queryset. I am looking for a much less expensive (in terms of time) way to to this..
log.info("Getting Users")
employees = Employee.objects.filter(is_active = True)
log.info("Have Users")
if opt.supervisor:
if opt.hierarchical:
people = getSubs(employees, " ".join(args))
else:
people = employees.filter(supervisor__name__icontains = " ".join(args))
else:
log.info("Filtering Users")
people = employees.filter(name__icontains = " ".join(args)) | \
employees.filter(unix_accounts__username__icontains = " ".join(args))
log.info("Filtered Users")
log.info("Processing data")
np = []
for person in people:
unix, p4, bugz = "No", "No", "No"
if len(person.unix_accounts.all()): unix = "Yes"
if len(person.perforce_accounts.all()): p4 = "Yes"
if len(person.bugzilla_accounts.all()): bugz = "Yes"
if person.cell_phone != "": exphone = fixphone(person.cell_phone)
elif person.other_phone != "": exphone = fixphone(person.other_phone)
else: exphone = ""
np.append({ 'name':person.name,
'office_phone': fixphone(person.office_phone),
'position': person.position,
'location': person.location.description,
'email': person.email,
'functional_area': person.functional_area.name,
'department': person.department.name,
'supervisor': person.supervisor.name,
'unix': unix, 'perforce': p4, 'bugzilla':bugz,
'cell_phone': fixphone(exphone),
'fax': fixphone(person.fax),
'last_update': person.last_update.ctime() })
log.info("Have data")
Now this results in a log which looks like this..
19:00:55 INFO phone phone Getting Users
19:00:57 INFO phone phone Have Users
19:00:57 INFO phone phone Processing data
19:01:30 INFO phone phone Have data
As you can see it's taking over 30 seconds to simply iterate over the data. That is way too expensive. Can someone clue me into a more efficient way to do this. I thought that if I did the first filter that would make things easier but seems to have no effect. I'm at a loss on this one.
Thanks
To be clear this is about 1500 employees -- Not too many!!
