I need to jump Saturday and Sunday automatically everyday so I can do a count in of certain element from a model. This is an example of the table I need to create:
Date ------- Order Holds
Today ------ 45 (wednesday)
09/09/16 --- 34 (Thursday)
10/09/16 --- 23 (Friday)
-----JUMP WEEKEND --- (and keep count in)
13/09/16 --- 56 (Monday)
14/09/16 --- 14 (Tuesday)
This is how I filter to count the number of holds for today, and I can keep getting them by adding 1 day:
This is my model(models.py):
class Data(models.Model):
date = models.DateField(null=True, blank=True)
ban = models.CharField(max_length=10)
This is part of my logic (views.py)
today = datetime.today()
tomorrow = today + timedelta(days=1)
orders = Data.objects.filter(date=today)
ban = orders.filter(ban__contains="BAN").count()
As you can see in my views.py logic I can filter all the BAN status from today's date, after that I can count them with now issue. My problem is that I if I filter for tomorrow and tomorrow is Friday I need to jump Saturday and Sunday. In other words, apply that logic everyday by just jumping weekends.
You can find the weekday number for a datetime by calling its weekday() method. Once you have that value you can test it to see if its one of the days you're interested in:
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
DAYS_OF_INTEREST = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} # Monday-Friday
DELTA_ONE_DAY = timedelta(days=1)
today = datetime.today()
day = today
for _ in range(14): # next two weeks
if day.weekday() in DAYS_OF_INTEREST:
print(day.strftime(("%d/%m/%y --- %A")))
#orders = Report.objects.filter(current_fcd_date=day)
#hold = orders.filter(order_hold__contains="HOLD").count()
day += DELTA_ONE_DAY
Output:
27/09/16 --- Tuesday
28/09/16 --- Wednesday
29/09/16 --- Thursday
30/09/16 --- Friday
03/10/16 --- Monday
04/10/16 --- Tuesday
05/10/16 --- Wednesday
06/10/16 --- Thursday
07/10/16 --- Friday
10/10/16 --- Monday
