Model class reference
=====================
.. currentmodule:: django.db.models
This document covers features of the :class:`~django.db.models.Model` class.
For more information about models, see :doc:`the complete list of Model
reference guides </ref/models/index>`.
Attributes
==========
``DoesNotExist``
----------------
.. exception:: Model.DoesNotExist
This exception is raised by the ORM when an expected object is not found.
For example, :meth:`.QuerySet.get` will raise it when no object is found
for the given lookups.
Django provides a ``DoesNotExist`` exception as an attribute of each model
class to identify the class of object that could not be found, allowing you
to catch exceptions for a particular model class. The exception is a
subclass of :exc:`django.core.exceptions.ObjectDoesNotExist`.
``MultipleObjectsReturned``
---------------------------
.. exception:: Model.MultipleObjectsReturned
This exception is raised by :meth:`.QuerySet.get` when multiple objects are
found for the given lookups.
Django provides a ``MultipleObjectsReturned`` exception as an attribute of
each model class to identify the class of object for which multiple objects
were found, allowing you to catch exceptions for a particular model class.
The exception is a subclass of
:exc:`django.core.exceptions.MultipleObjectsReturned`.
``objects``
-----------
.. attribute:: Model.objects
Each non-abstract :class:`~django.db.models.Model` class must have a
:class:`~django.db.models.Manager` instance added to it.
Django ensures that in your model class you have at least a
default ``Manager`` specified. If you don't add your own ``Manager``,
Django will add an attribute ``objects`` containing default
:class:`~django.db.models.Manager` instance. If you add your own
:class:`~django.db.models.Manager` instance attribute, the default one does
not appear. Consider the following example::
from django.db import models
class Person(models.Model):
# Add manager with another name
people = models.Manager()
For more details on model managers see :doc:`Managers </topics/db/managers>`
and :ref:`Retrieving objects <retrieving-objects>`.
