I'm familiar with hard-coding filters in the standard fashion, e.g.
posts = Post.objects.filter(title__contains='django').
I'm interested in finding out whether it's possible to replace
title__contains in the above example with a variable. Why do I want to
do this? Well, here's some pseudocode:
posts = Post.objects.all()
if title checkbox is checked:
posts = posts.filter(title__contains='django')
if subheading checkbox is checked:
posts = posts.filter(subheading__contains='django')
if body checkbox is checked:
posts = posts.filter(body__contains='django')
I would love to be able to do this with a loop:
posts = Post.objects.all()
for field in ['title', 'subheading', 'body']:
posts = posts.filter(field__contains='django')
Clearly the above will not work, but is there a way to achieve the
result I'm after?
