Select distinct users with referrals
- by Mark
I have a bunch of Users. Since Django doesn't really let me extend the default User model, they each have Profiles. The Profiles have a referred_by field (a FK to User). I'm trying to get a list of Users with = 1 referral. Here's what I've got so far
Profile.objects.filter(referred_by__isnull=False).values_list('referred_by', flat=True)
Which gives me a list of IDs of the users who have referrals... but I need it to be distinct, and I want the User object, not their ID.
Or better yet, it would be nice if it could return the number of referrals a user has.
Any ideas?
