Relevant django-filter issues: carltongibson/django-filter#583 carltongibson/django-filter#426

You can do this by manually defining your own filter, example from the first issue:

MarkaMoto = django_filters.CharFilter(name='attributes', lookup_expr='MarkaMoto__value__contains')

But there are limitations like not supporting icontains or querying arrays.

Thank you very much @zbyte64 I though graphene-django has feature to do a generic filter for this problem since it has been around for a year already.

We aren't allowed to have a graphql endpoint with arbitrary keys. For generic filtering, one would have to represent arbitrary key value pairs as it's own input type. The problem looks fairly similar to generic filtering of models across arbitrary columns and has the same concerns.
