Sep 25, 2019 at 20:53 comment added Arne Claassen It's not that ORM won't let me generate custom SQL, it's that the query is automatically generated as part of the REST API machinery. I can probably suppress that for the couple of places where this is applicable, but would certainly prefer fixing it at the source rather through a special case of tech debt.
Sep 25, 2019 at 20:49 comment added Laurenz Albe Any ORM worth its salt will let you write queries in SQL. How about creating a view AS SELECT id + 0 AS id, ...?
Sep 25, 2019 at 20:44 comment added Arne Claassen That does indeed work. Unfortunately the queries are generated by the Django ORM and only certain scenarios would this really be the desirable behavior, so it's probably not a solution we can deploy.
