Anyone figure out a sort algorithm to do this please?
list =
DateTimeDuration.objects.all().filter(date=now).order_by('resource','start')
max_hours = 8
this produces
Resource – start – duration – user-name
Item - 9 - 4 - T Test
Item- 10 - 4 - Alpha Bravo
Item - 14 - 2 - Herod First
what I need is to sort it so that it outputs like this:
Item - 9 - 4 - T Test
Item - 14 - 2 - Herod First
Item - 10 - 4 - Alpha Bravo
The parameters are:
There are 8 hours in a day (max_hours = 8)
the list of objects need to be sorted in such a way that if 2 or more
objects combined duration is less than 8 then they need to be sorted in
order of start time but if the start time of another object
is the same or the start time is within the duration of an object then it
must be shuffled backwards
As an adder:
Each resource has a finite number so is there a way to utilise the max
number of resources within a resource so that we know how many resources
are unused?
MODEL for info
class Resource(models.Model):
resource = models.CharField(max_length=30)
resource_capacity = models.IntegerField()
seating = models.IntegerField()
def __unicode__(self):
return self.resource
class User(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
email = models.CharField(max_length=100, null=True, blank=True)
tel = models.CharField(max_length=100, null=True, blank=True)
class DateTimeDuration(models.Model):
user = models.ForeignKey(User)
resource = models.ForeignKey(Resource)
date = models.DateField()
start = models.IntegerField(max_length=5, help_text="whole number like
9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17")
hours = models.IntegerField(max_length=2, help_text="Number of hours as
a whole number like 3")
class Meta:
verbose_name_plural = 'Booking Date-Time-Duration'
ordering = ('date',)
Anyone point me in the right direction please?
