You’re looking for the
{% regroup%}tag, which does exactly what you want. It takes a sequence of items (it has to
be ordered beforehand, which yours is) and a lookup and groups the sequence by
that lookup.
view:
events = Event.objects.select_related.all()
template:
{% regroup events by date as events_by_date %}{% for date in events_by_date %} <div > <h1>{{ date.grouper|date:"d F Y" }}</h1> {% for event in date.list %} {% include "partials/event.html" %} {% endfor %} </div>{% endfor %}(Notice that the date format string is different; the equivalent of
%Bin
strftimeis
Ffor the
date
filter).
