I'm trying custom model managers to add annotations to querysets. My problem, which started as a little annoyance but I now realize can be an actual problem, is that VS Code does not recognise the methods defined in the custom model manager/queryset. Example: from django.db import models from rest_framework.generics import ListAPIView # models.py class CarQuerySet(models.QuerySet): def wiht_wheels(self): # NOTE: intentional typo pass # assume this does some annotaion class Car(models.Model): objects = CarQuerySet.as_manager() # views.py class ListCarsView(ListAPIView): def get_queryset(self): return Car.objects.wiht_weels() # <--- white instead of yellow At first, I was just annoyed by the fact that wiht_weels is printed in white as opposed to the usual yellow for methods/functions. Then I was more annoyed because this means VS Code will not give me any hints as to what args the method expects or what it returns. Finally, I accidentally made a typo on a name of one of these custom model methods, I hit refactor->rename, but it only renamed it in place, not on the places where it is used (views), probably because VS Code doesn't understand that method is being used anywhere. Is there a solution to this? Continue reading...
