How to concat two columns of table django model

Viewed 4012

I am implementing search in my project what I want is to concat to column in where clause to get results from table.

Here is what I am doing:

from django.db.models import Q

if 'search[value]' in request.POST and len(request.POST['search[value]']) >= 3:
    search_value = request.POST['search[value]'].strip()

    q.extend([
        Q(id__icontains=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        (Q(created_by__first_name=request.POST['search[value]']) & Q(created_for=None)) |
        Q(created_for__first_name=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        (Q(created_by__last_name=request.POST['search[value]']) & Q(created_for=None)) |
        Q(created_for__last_name=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        (Q(created_by__email__icontains=search_value) & Q(created_for=None)) |
        Q(created_for__email__icontains=search_value) |
        Q(ticket_category=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        Q(status__icontains=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        Q(issue_type__icontains=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        Q(title__icontains=request.POST['search[value]']) |
        Q(assigned_to__first_name__icontains=request.POST['search[value]']) |

    ])

Now I want to add another OR condition like:

CONCAT(' ', created_by__first_name, created_by__last_name) like '%'search_value'%'

But when I add this condition to the queryset it becomes AND

where = ["CONCAT_WS(' ', profiles_userprofile.first_name, profiles_userprofile.last_name) like '"+request.POST['search[value]']+"' "]
            tickets = Ticket.objects.get_active(u, page_type).filter(*q).extra(where=where).exclude(*exq).order_by(*order_dash)[cur:cur_length]

How do I convert this into an OR condition?
