[Django]-How can I find the union of two Django querysets?

Starting from version 1.11, django querysets have a builtin union method.

q = q1.union(q2) #q will contain all unique records of q1 + q2
q = q1.union(q2, all=True) #q will contain all records of q1 + q2 including duplicates
q = q1.union(q2,q3) # more than 2 queryset union

See my blog post on this for more examples.

I would suggest using ‘query1.union(query2)’ instead of ‘query1 | query2’;
I got different results from the above two methods and the former one is what I expected.
The following is what I had come across:

print "union result:"
for element in query_set1.union(query_set2):
    print element

print "| result:"
for element in (query_set1 | query_set2):
    print element

result:

union result:
KafkaTopic object
KafkaTopic object
KafkaTopic object
KafkaTopic object
KafkaTopic object

| result:
KafkaTopic object
