Re: DRF | Django | Up votes | Down Votes

Hi, 

One way would be to create an extra field to track the difference in both fields and then in your meta information on that model set the ordering to that field. 

Another approach which is better is to do something like this. 

Votes.objects.extra(select={'diff': 'upvote - downvote'}).order_by('diff')

Best regards

Stephen Oba

Hi Django experts.

I am building a Django, DRF based mobile app and I want to have functionality of up votes and down votes for posts that user will post.

So what I want to say here that, if an user upvotes a post then it should be get higher ranks as quora questions do. and if there are more down votes than up votes then a post should be moved down ward rather than going up.

I have applied a logic already here and shared the screenshots as well. but I am sure that there is a better logic or solution for this problem.

Thanks in advance.

Mr Mike and Mr Lalit can you guide me here please?
