Django supports the serializing model objects, but does not support the serializing Q object like that,

q = Q(username__contains="findme") model0.objects.filter(q)

serialize(q) # X

so I wrote a little marshaller for Q, this is example,

from django.contrib.auth import models as django_models qs = django_query.Q(usernamecontains="spike") | django_query.Q(emailcontains="spike")

_m = QMarshaller() a = _m.dumps(qs) # a was serialized.

When call the similiar queries in page by page, you don't need to write additional code for creating same Q(s) for filtering models, just use the serialized Q as http querystring and in the next page unserialize and apply it. That is simple life.
