I think the consensus here is to not add the extra commit, so I've
closed the ticket as wontfix.

Just as an additional data point - most expressions that accept strings
internally convert them to F(), so it's not entirely inconsistent with
other behaviour. I don't really have a preference here though, so happy to
go with what the majority prefer.

Agree with Loïc on 100%.
And also it opens more options in the future.

I prefer enforcing .values(alias=F(’something’)), to me
.values(alias=‘something’) reads as the equivalent of
.values(alias=Value(‘something’)).

We now have support for expressions in values()/values_list() -- thanks
Ian! With the new commit [0], aliases can be created like this:
.values(alias=F('field'))
Ian has offered an additional commit in the pull request [1] to allow
.values(alias='field') (without the F() expression) to automati
I would really like two things for values to support.
1. Aliases .values(alias='field');
2. Expressions .values(alias=F('field'))
I think these two features are absolute must haves, and the syntaxes above
are already standard in other parts of the ORM.
If someone can come up with a way to suppo

I can see a use for this, but the API is unsure. Given that from a
performance point of view it should be possible to do this as a transform
after a values query (in most cases using a similar lazy sequence-like
object will maintain the performance you need), can I propose implementing

I think I wasn't clear from the beginning, the idea of "nested" is to nest
all possible levels, not just a single level. I like the idea of "N", given
that you can have more control, but having something like N("person",
"person__hometown", "person__hometown__country") which will be different

Marten's suggestion is quite interesting for providing a way to tell which
data you want nested and which data you don't. Plus, this form might be
interesting to solve another problem : how would Django know if we want :
{"id": 1
"first_name": "first name",
"last_name": "last name",
"hometown
I like the idea but what about multiple nesting, multiple foreign keys?
We end up with something like N('author__book')? a bit confusing no?

I think it'd be more consistent with other parts of the ORM to use **kwargs
to specify aliases. For nested data you can use an object, say N, similar
to Q and F objects:
Articles.objects.filter(id=1).values('body', N('author'), my_custom_title=
'title')
I'm no ORM expert, but could something li
Well, switch the field name aliasing to a dictionary without hijacking
**kwargs ?
I prefer the following:
Articles.objects.get(id=1).values(’title’, ’author’, ‘body',
alias={"title": "my_custom_title"}, nested=True)

There's an accepted ticket for adding aliasing to values():
https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16735
The current patch there hijacks values() **kwargs for the mapping of
renamed fields which would prevent adding other kwargs like "nested"
without disallowing those values as aliases. I guess
100%, that would be great also. I thought of just posting the basic
requirement that might be useful to most.

I could also use a couple of enhancement to this:
1) Allow renaming of keys, instead of using the database column names.
2) Allow callbacks functions (or lambdas) to convert output values to another
format if needed.
With this, I could send the queries results right to JSON outputs.

Currently, after calling values() and the query executes, the output is a
single level dictionary, including foreign keys. I propose adding an extra
parameter for values, or at least values_list, where if it's set to true, a
nested dictionary will be returned when there's a foreign key.
