filtering objects based on boolean field state

I’m working on a project where a form is filled out. And in that form you have the is_active fields. If the user selects True, it means the account is active and if it is False, it means it is no longer active, and the user can no longer see it. Through the filters I’m trying to present only the forms with the is_active True, but I’m not able to.

Follow one of my attempts in my views:

class BookingViewSet(viewsets.ModelViewSet): 
    serializer_class = BookingSerializer
    #queryset = Booking.objects.all()
    #queryset = Booking.objects.filter(is_active="True")
    #filter_backends = (filters.DjangoFilterBackend,)
    #filterset_class = BookingFilter
    #filterset_fields = ['is_active']


    def get_queryset(self):
        queryset = Booking.objects.all()
        username = self.request.query_params.get('bookings')
        if username is not None:
            queryset = queryset.filter(is_active__username=username)
        return queryset

and here are my models

class Booking(models.Model):
    booking_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
    account = models.ForeignKey(Account, models.DO_NOTHING)
    tenant = models.ForeignKey(Tenant, models.DO_NOTHING)
    full_name = models.CharField(max_length=128)
    email = models.CharField(max_length=256)
    phone = models.CharField(max_length=256)
    postal_code = models.CharField(max_length=64, null=True, blank=True)
    from_city = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True)
    to_city = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True)
    travel_date = models.DateField()
    travel_period = models.CharField(max_length=256, null=True, blank=True)
    adults_travelers_count = models.SmallIntegerField()
    children_travelers_count = models.SmallIntegerField()
    senior_travelers_count = models.SmallIntegerField()
    booking_request_description = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
    booking_status_cd = models.CharField(max_length=10, null=True, blank=True)
    locator_code = models.CharField(max_length=32, null=True, blank=True)
    total_booking_price_atm = models.DecimalField(max_digits=11, decimal_places=2)
    total_booking_cost_atm = models.DecimalField(max_digits=11, decimal_places=2)
    payment_type_cd = models.CharField(max_length=10, null=True, blank=True)
    payment_status_cd = models.CharField(max_length=10, null=True, blank=True)
    payment_datetime = models.DateTimeField(blank=True, null=True)
    discount_percent = models.DecimalField(max_digits=3, decimal_places=1)
    discount_amount = models.DecimalField(max_digits=12, decimal_places=2)
    payment_amount = models.DecimalField(max_digits=12, decimal_places=2)
    voucher_file_path = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
    receipt_file_path = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
    invoice_file_path = models.TextField(blank=True, null=True)
    modified_ts = models.DateTimeField()
    modified_by = models.CharField(max_length=31)
    modified_op = models.CharField(max_length=1)
    created_by = models.CharField(max_length=31)
    created_ts = models.DateTimeField()
    is_active = models.BooleanField()

 class Meta:
        managed = True
        db_table = 'booking'
        unique_together = (("booking_id", "account", "tenant"),)

>Solution :

Essentially, you’re correct that the filter Booking.objects.filter(is_active=True) will give you all the active bookings. If you also want to filter by username, you need to have another filter (can comma-separate in the same filter function) to filter by that. It’s unclear where username lives in your models, but assuming it’s on the account model:

Booking.objects.filter(is_active=True, account__username=username)
