Each QuerySet object has a query
attribute that you can log or print to stdout for debugging purposes.
qs = Model.objects.filter(name="test")
print(qs.query)
Note that in pdb, using p qs.query
will not work as desired, but print(qs.query)
will.
If that doesn’t work, for old Django versions, try:
print str(qs.query)
Edit
I’ve also used custom template tags (as outlined in this snippet) to inject the queries in the scope of a single request as HTML comments.
