#29229 closed Bug (fixed)

QuerySet.values_list() combined with .extra() or .annotate() may produce wrong .union()

Description (last modified by master)

Regression introduced in 2.0, still present in 2.0.3 [Edit: and backported in 1.11.8].

Easy context to reproduce the problem: suppose a Message model, in a postman app. Only one ordinary field is enough for the demo.

qs1 = Message.objects.extra(select={'count': 0}).values_list('id', 'count').order_by()
print(qs1.query)  # as expected:
# SELECT (0) AS "count", "postman_message"."id"
# FROM "postman_message"

qs2 = Message.objects.values('somefield').annotate(count=models.Count('pk')).annotate(id=models.Max('pk')).values_list('id', 'count').order_by()
print(qs2.query)  # as expected:
# SELECT COUNT("postman_message"."id") AS "count",  MAX("postman_message"."id") AS "id"
# FROM "postman_message" GROUP BY "postman_message"."somefield"

print(qs1.union(qs2).query)  # !! WRONG !! the qs2 part is truncated:
# SELECT (0) AS "count", "postman_message"."id" FROM "postman_message"
# UNION
# SELECT MAX("postman_message"."id") AS "id" FROM "postman_message" GROUP BY "postman_message"."somefield"

Compared to version 1.11 [Edit: I run 1.11.7 precisely], it comes from this addition in db/models/sql/compiler.py/get_combinator_sql():

if not compiler.query.values_select and self.query.values_select:
    compiler.query.set_values(self.query.values_select)

Here, self.query.values_select is ('id',).
For qs2, values_select is indeed empty, as coded in db/models/sql/query.py/set_values(),
because in this case the two values_list() arguments are managed in annotation_names[].

It seems that the regression test added here doesn't match the original steps to reproduce closely enough as the original issue has reoccurred after #29286 and a new ticket (#29694) is created.

comment:8 by master, 6 years ago

The regression test added by the PR (test_union_with_two_annotated_values_list()) seems to have an unnecessarily complex combination, just to comply with a mandatory ordering of fields imposed by the union.
Instead of:

.annotate(count=F('num'),).annotate(num=Value(1, IntegerField()),

This writing is more understandable:

.annotate(num=F('num'),).annotate(count=Value(1, IntegerField()),
Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
