Re: Unhashable TypeError when deleted from model, Django 2.2

Why not use a boolean field on the model to denote expires? Then if that field is True, delete the object? I think that would be cheaper and cleaner, especially with lookups.

Kind regards,

I have a model that has a nullable field called expires. If expires is null, then the record never expires.

I'm performing a delete on the model for any record that has an expires date that has passed, and I keep getting a TypeError that Model is unhashable. Am I doing something wrong?

 

Model.objects.filter(expires__lt=timezone.now()).delete()

 

Here's the traceback:
