Currently, auto_install is triggered when all dependencies get
installed, but there are cases where one would want such trigger on
only a subset thereof.
e.g. we want `website_sale_dashboard` to auto-install when
`website_sale` is installed. Currently, it requires `web_dashboard` to
also be auto-installed otherwise `website_sale_dashboard` would "wait"
for both dependencies to be explicitly installed before the
auto-install triggers. That's despite `web_dashboard` not being very
useful on its own. More generally this is an issue with technical
modules which need to be marked as auto_install so as not to block
e.g. bridge modules from automatically installing.
This change allows setting `auto_install` to a subset of `depends`:
* if auto_install is set to `False`, the module does not get
automatically installed (no change in semantics)
* if auto_install is set to `True`, the module gets automatically
installed if and only if all its dependencies are installed (also no
change in semantics)
* if auto_install is set to a list of dependencies, the module will be
installed when all *these* dependencies are installed, other
dependencies (excluded from auto_install) will be installed
alongside as a consequence
* auto_install can be set to an empty list, in this case the module
will always be automatically installed regardless of its
dependencies (and will force their installation).
So after this change, `web_dashboard`'s auto_install can be set to
`False` (such that it's not installed if no module defining dashboards
is installed) and `website_sale_dashboard`'s manifest can be edited
to:
'auto_install': ['website_sale']
possibilities:
# no automatic installation
'depends': ['a', 'b'],
'auto_install': False
# automatic installation if both a and b are installed
'depends': ['a', 'b'],
'auto_install': True
# automatic installation if both a and b are installed (explicit)
'depends': ['a', 'b'],
'auto_install': ['a', 'b']
# automatic installation if b is installed, a will get forcefully
# installed if it isn't yet
'depends': ['a', 'b'],
'auto_install': ['b']
# always automatically installed, will cause the installation of
# its dependencies even if they're not marked explicitly
'depends': ['a', 'b'],
'auto_install': []

[NEW] base: show enterprise module, with an 'upgrade' button
[IMP] *: some modules renaming, and improved copywriting of manifest
[IMP] *: utm on links to odoo.com
* store hashed passwords in the `password` column but gate it behind a
computed field
* make the password field essentially write-only (SQL aside)
* add a "plaintext" hash type so it's possible to set the password in
SQL directly & be able to login & have it automatically updated
Task 34211
create_date is not required but may be assumed as always set such as in
base.partner.merge comparison
The administrator had no create_date set
Avoid errors in merge wizard if one of the record has no create_date
