Work with web-controller OpenERP

How to override web controller in openerp 8.0.

Here, i try to define one example that may be useful to you to understand how to work with web controller in openerp 8.0.

Existing controller (addons/web/controllers/main.py) :
- class name Home, and method index

class Home(http.Controller):

    @http.route('/', type='http', auth="none")
    def index(self, s_action=None, db=None, **kw):
        return http.local_redirect('/web', query=request.params, keep_hash=True)

Now, here i define how to override existing controller...
 - Here, my class name Website, and in parameter i pass path of controller which i want to inherit, so here "Home" class which is in addons/web/controllers/main.py so in path i pass : openerp.addons.web.controllers.main.Home.

 - @http.route : in openerp 8.0 the route system changed.
           '/' : '/' route will match the new index() method in Website.
        'type' : There are different type like http,json...
                 (http : normal http requests by passing, Json : Methods that received JSON can be defined by passing 'json')

class Website(openerp.addons.web.controllers.main.Home):
    @http.route('/', type='http', auth="public", website=True, multilang=True)
    def index(self, **kw):
        try:
            main_menu = request.registry['ir.model.data'].get_object(request.cr, request.uid, 'website', 'main_menu')
            first_menu = main_menu.child_id and main_menu.child_id[0]
            # Dont 302 loop on /
            if first_menu and not ((first_menu.url == '/') or first_menu.url.startswith('/#') or first_menu.url.startswith('/?')):
                return request.redirect(first_menu.url)
        except:
            pass
        return self.page("website.homepage")

Know object/table size in Odoo database

Table Size in Odoo

Every time after backup we check how much space needed. Its necessary, but its normal if we have lots of space, but when database size continuously increase then we need to check which table/object increase your database size so fast.

So, in PostgreSQL if we want to see which table/object increase your database size then by following sql query, you can easily know which object consume how much.

[Query ]:
SELECT nspname || '.' || relname AS "relation",
pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(C.oid)) AS "total_size"
FROM pg_class C
LEFT JOIN pg_namespace N ON (N.oid = C.relnamespace)
WHERE nspname NOT IN ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema')
AND C.relkind <> 'i'
AND nspname !~ '^pg_toast'
ORDER BY pg_total_relation_size(C.oid) DESC
LIMIT 100;

Hide field in tree view based on condition

Hide Field in Tree view

In tree view we know how to put domain or attrs to visible or invisible any field,

But, if we want to hide particular field in tree view based on type or state means based on any condition , then its hard to hide as we cannot use attrs to hide as attrs hide only value not a field.

So, its need to put some condition like below as its get value from context and check.

invisible="context.get('picking_type', False) in ['in']"

Call xmlrpc when want to access functional field

Hello All,

In openerp sometimes we need to update database value on basis of some field value, we can direct do it but if we want to apply in old data then we use sql query and we update but if there is functional field which is not stored in database but you need to update data base on it. At that time we can do it by xmlrpc.

Here, i defined xmlrpc script in which if there is Purchase order which is 'received' and 'invoiced' but still not in 'done' state by this script purchase order gone in 'done' state.

Purchase Order Done :

import xmlrpclib
import time

username = 'admin' #the user
pwd = 'a'      #the password of the user
dbname = 'test'    #the database
model = 'purchase.order' # model name

# Get the uid
sock_common = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy ('http://localhost:8069/xmlrpc/common')
uid = sock_common.login(dbname, username, pwd)

#replace localhost with the address of the server
sock = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy('http://localhost:8069/xmlrpc/object')

# argument passed to search
args = [('shipped', '=', True), ('state', 'not in', ['done']), ('invoice_method', 'in', ['manual','picking'])]
# search ids
ids = sock.execute(dbname, uid, pwd, model, 'search', args)

# READ functional field
ids_f = []
fields = ['invoiced']
po_ord = sock.execute(dbname, uid, pwd, model, 'read', ids, fields)
for re in po_ord :
    if re['invoiced'] :
        ids_f.append(re['id'])

# write state done
values = {'state':'done'}
results = sock.execute(dbname, uid, pwd, model, 'write', ids_f, values)

if ids_f :
    print "Successfully applied records ",ids_f
else:
    print "No records found to update"
