m2m_foreign_field aggregate values

[TITANHACKY]

Currently there is no aggreate values for m2m_foreign_field like count, sum. If there is aggregate values then there is no need to write initial query set

@TITANHACKY How did you go about solving this problem?
More importantly, I was hoping to be able to sort by a sum of values

Hi @elementace,

I had modified get_initial_queryset and queried the data using annotate method and calculated the sum, count

Thanks @TITANHACKY , for completion sake; I did it in the filter queryset method, to save in some extra compute.
