>>> d3.save()
>>> RelatedPoint(name="r1", data=d3).save()
Objects are updated by first filtering the candidates into a queryset and then
calling the update() method. It executes immediately and returns nothing.
>>> DataPoint.objects.filter(value="apple").update(name="d1")
>>> DataPoint.objects.filter(value="apple")
[<DataPoint: d1>]
We can update multiple objects at once.
>>> DataPoint.objects.filter(value="banana").update(value="pineapple")
>>> DataPoint.objects.get(name="d2").value
u'pineapple'
Foreign key fields can also be updated, although you can only update the object
referred to, not anything inside the related object.
>>> d = DataPoint.objects.get(name="d1")
>>> RelatedPoint.objects.filter(name="r1").update(data=d)
>>> RelatedPoint.objects.filter(data__name="d1")
[<RelatedPoint: r1>]
Multiple fields can be updated at once
>>> DataPoint.objects.filter(value="pineapple").update(value="fruit", another_value="peaches")
>>> d = DataPoint.objects.get(name="d2")
>>> d.value, d.another_value
(u'fruit', u'peaches')
In the rare case you want to update every instance of a model, update() is also
a manager method.
>>> DataPoint.objects.update(value='thing')
>>> DataPoint.objects.values('value').distinct()
[{'value': u'thing'}]
