Creating a new database entry without calling save()

Normally, to create a new object from a model you'd instantiate it like a regular class and then call the save() method on the created object:

from myapp.models import SomeModel

def home_view(request):
	new_entry = SomeModel(data=123)
	new_entry.save()

This can also be achieved with .objects.create().

def home_view(request):
	SomeModel.objects.create(data=123)
