Receives list of already initialized parent models with all children from select_related already populated. Receives also list of row sql result rows as it's quicker to extract ids that way instead of calling each model.

Returns list with related models already prefetched and set.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
models Sequence[Model]

list of already instantiated models from main query

required
rows List

row sql result of the main query before the prefetch

required

Returns:

Type Description
List[Model]
