Django: will using module objects in if statements result in true?

I'm fairly new to Django, but is this possible and if so what exactly is required? I checked the docs and couldn't find what I was looking for. 

#models.py
class Car (models.Model):
    make = models.CharField(max_length=100)
    year = models.IntegerField(max_length=4)


car = Car(make = "Toyota", year = 2011)

*Code in question, will this result in true?*
if (car):
    //do stuff

Thanks for any help.

Solution

  • you can do some thing like this:

    car = Car.objects.create(make = "Toyota", year = 2011)

if car:
    # do some thing
    # here you have access to car object like this car.make , car.year
