How to filter objects in Django by time since last 24 hours?

Question

Assuming there's a starting time from 00:00 to 00:00 every day, how best are Django objects filtered by time, based on the current day? I initially came up with this:

from django.utils import timezone


yesterday = timezone.now() - timezone.timedelta(1)
qs = Foo.objects.filter(date__gte=yesterday)

##

yesterday = datetime.date.today() - datetime.timedelta(1)
qs = Foo.objects.filter(date__gte=yesterday)

However, this is not particularly right. I would prefer time starting exactly from 00:00 to timezone.now() -so something like Foo.objects.filter(date__range=[00:00, timezone.now()]) Thank you.

Yevgeniy Kosmak's answer is correct, use datetime_field__date= filter.

Here are the Django docs

Also you can use date/datetime - timedelta() pattern with others arguments in timedelta, like

timedelta(
    days=50,
    seconds=27,
    microseconds=10,
    milliseconds=29000,
    minutes=5,
    hours=8,
    weeks=2
)
