Doing lookups in a polyphormic model as attribute

[pbassut]

So, I have the following models:

class Task(PolymorphicModel):
    title = models.CharField(max_length=100)

class TaskTopic(Task):
    topic = models.ForeignKey(Topic, default=None, null=True)

class Event(models.Model):
    tasks = models.ManyToManyField(Task, db_table='event_tasks')

I wanna filter by the topic field. I tried something like this but it didn't work.

Event.objects.filter(tasks__instance_of=TaskTopic)

Any ideia of how to do this?

This would suggest the filter won't be applied to the queryset of the m2m model.

You may want to try something like this as a workaround:

ct = ContentType.objects.get_for_model(TaskTopic)
Event.objects.filter(tasks__polymorphic_ctype=ct)
