The aim of this PR is to improve/fix various flaws and limitation of the current
API, to make it easier to use and more efficient.
Notification are now defined with 3 distinct parts:
- the channel determines which client(s) should receive it
- the type determines how it should be handled
- the payload determines any extra information helpful for handling it
Channel
=======
Business code
-------------
- Record channel is introduced for ease of subscribing to and sending
notifications to specific partners, channels, documents, ...
- String channel is still supported (but it is converted internally to the tuple
channel).
- Tuple channel is still supported without any change (but should be avoided
whenever possible due to its complex syntax).
The channel is no longer sent to the client. When the channel was used for
business purpose, the information it contained has been moved into either the
new type, or the payload itself.
Technical note
--------------
All channels are now internally converted to the tuple (db, ...) channel, which
is necessary for the platform code (saas/sh).
Internally, the bus.bus table is not changed, type and payload are grouped
together into what was (and still is) called message.
Type
====
Type is introduced to uniformize the way notifications are sent and handled.
All existing notifications already had some kind of manually-built type in them.
This is now officially supported at the bus API.
In client code this will allow (to be done in future commits) to register one
handler per specific type, instead of having to iterate and to filter all
received notifications on every handler.
Payload
=======
Payload (ex message) did not change, it can still be anything depending on
business needs.
Few adaptations:
- When the type was included on the payload, the type has been moved to the new
type parameter.
- When the channel was used in business code, its data has been copied into the
payload.

Jinja as a templating engine was problematic in differents respect:
- introduce external dependency to Odoo (less controll)
- add another templating mechanism in the stack
- specific feature in qweb cannot be reused
- difficulty in rendering easily editable templates
- more knowledge required with no betterment
By replacing jinja with qweb we can now build tools to edit a qweb
that will work with the previously jinja encoded document
(essentially `mail.template` records).
There is a catch however. Some email fields (eg. email_to) used jinja
syntax for rendering dynamic variables (ie. ${object.something} and
${object.something_that_should_not_be_escaped | safe}).
We still want user to use dynamic variables for some char fields (eg.
subject, from, to, ...). We made a new rendering engine called
"inline_template" that will render an expression enclosed by `{{` and
`}}`.
To be able to edit the templates from the backend interface, a
plugin to the Odoo editor has been made for seamlessly edit the
document.
This qweb plugin includes:
- make dynamic variables (eg. `<t t-out="variable"/>`) not editable
(for preventing the user to shoot himself in the foot)
- group and hide related logical branching (ie. t-if, t-elif, and t-else)
in order to see only one at once
- a floating select input to switch visibility of a particular logical
branching

Purpose of this commit is to highlight an issue that may happens easily with
`crm` that is made generic here within `test_mail`.
`crm` alters the context when creating a new record adding in this case
`default_type` to it][1]. The returned record contains that altered context.
his results in other records created from it trying to assign that same default
value for `type`. This is a very common name for fields, and happens to exist
in `ir.attachment` too.
If you create an alias for incoming leads in your DB with default values
`{"type": "lead"}` (something very common) and then an email comes to that
alias that contains an inlined base64 image, the attachment creation process
would simply fail.
Obtained error is ``ValueError: Wrong value for ir.attachment.type: 'lead'`` .

Purpose
=======
Purpose of this commit is to add a new group for the mail template designer.
Goal is to make roles clearer: managers edit templates, users use them. This
commit allow some designers / managers to make email template and to let
others users use those email templates.
Specifications
==============
When this feature is enabled in the Settings page, a new group is required to
modify email templates in a composer like wizard or to make dynamic content.
This allows to separate managers editing / composing templates from standard
users that use them.
If the current does not have this group, the email body will be in readonly
mode if he selected an email template. That way we force him to use the email
template that the manager made.
Technical
=========
New Group
---------
Only users in this group will be able to create / write email template or
to write Jinja code in the mail composer (including other fields like subject
in mailing).
By default, all internal users have this group. Mass mailing users also have
this group as writing mailings is about the same management level as writing
templates.
Mail Composer Mixin
-------------------
In comment mode, the template is rendered and then saved on the body field
so non-"Mail Template Editor" users can load email templates.
But in mass mode, the body of the template is saved and then rendered and
many things change the body (HTML sanitizer, web editor move inline CSS
properties, add / remove spaces...). So in this case, we can not know if
the user changed the body or not. That is why we put the body field in
readonly mode so, it is not modified by the web editor.
Jinja code detection
--------------------
To detect dynamic Jinja content, we compile the template, and we browse the
AST. If we do not have a single "Template Data" node, we assume that the
template is dynamic.
When we detect the template as static, we do not render it. That way we
avoid unnecessary rendering.
Code cleaning
-------------
Move Jinja import into tools so that it is outside of mail framework code.

PURPOSE
=======
We want to increase the score of the emails sent by Odoo and we want to
avoid them to be marked as spam by the mail clients (gmail, outook...).
SPECIFICATIONS
===============
From filter
-----------
Add a new field on the "ir.mail_server" which is "from_filter". This
field defines the email address for which the outgoing email server can
be used.
The "from_filter" can either define an email address or a domain name.
Use the system parameter "mail.default.from" which allow us to define
a default email address which is used to encapsulate the emails
(default: notifications@<catch.all.domain>).
Mail server priorities
----------------------
When sending an email, we read the FROM header and,
- We first look for a mail server which match the entire mail FROM
in that case, we do not change the email header (not needed)
- If not found, we search a mail server which matches the domain name of
the mail from (do not need to change the headers in that case)
- If not found, find the mail server linked to the "notifications"
email (defined in the system parameter). Then change the FROM header
to the notification email, and put the old one in the name part of
this header.
E.g.
Initial mail from: "Admin" < admin@example.com >
Final mail from: "Admin (admin@odoo.com)" < notifications@odoo.com >
- If no notification email is configured or if no mail server are
found for the notification email, fallback to the old system and
spoof the FROM header. In that case we do not have the choice if we
want to send the email, he will probably be marked as spam.
Sending method priority
-----------------------
In the mail server models, we defined some priorities,
1. Forced SMTP session
2. Forced mail server
3. Try to find the best mail server (see "Mail server priorities")
4. If not found, read the odoo-bin arguments
Bounce
------
As there's no standard for bounce address, we put it in the envelope
(smtp_from). But in some case, it might be considered as spoofing. So,
we use the bounce address ONLY if the mail server is configured for the
entire domain name.
One behavior which might be broken is the following; we send an email as
"std@gmail.com" and the bounce address is on the domain "odoo.com".
Before we received the bounce notifications but we were spoofing the
local part and the domain.
Now
- if a mail server is configured for GMAIL, we do not use the bounce
address (and we might not receive the bounce notification)
- if no mail server is configured for GMAIL, but one is configured for
"odoo.com"
- the FROM header will be "notifications@odoo.com"
- the FROM envelope will be the bounce address
=> In this situation we are spoofing only the local part of the email
but it's allowed as the mail server is configured for the entire
domain name

RATIONALE
Channel model is a mail.thread enabled model behaving strangely with followers,
notifications and discuss. Its code should however be simplified to be more
self contained and avoid unwanted side effects on other models.
SPECIFICATIONS
Remove ``channel_ids`` argument and support from ``message_subscribe`` and
``message_unsubscribe`` API. Indeed we do not support adding channel-based
followers anymore. Only partners should be added or removed from followers.
It also allows to simplify API and understanding of both methods.
Various addons are updated to match the simplified (un)subscribe API. Some
enterprise addons may also be impacted.

Add the currency symbol for the monetary tracking field to better
represent the change of a monetary field.
The currency will be fetch from the currency defined in the
monetary field or on the record's company in case there is not.
For example, if we have a record with a monetary field displaying
"$ 500". If we modify the currency and the value to have "450 €",
the message containing the tracking values will display:
"500 € -> 450 €".
We only use one field to track the currency of a monetary field.
Indeed, in the case where the currency is changed with the value
of a monetary field, only the new currency is tracked. We focus
on the fact that the more important thing is the new value.
Furthermore, when modifying a currency of a monetary field, the
user can already see the new currency before saving the changes.
This allows him to adapt the value of the field if he needs it.
(N.B. we assume that this case will happen very rarely)
Using only one field takes also into account that there are
millions of record for this model and adding a new field would
take a lot of memory.

- Install "Approvals"
- Submit new approval with you as "Request Owner"
- Click on "View Approval Request" in your mailbox
The link redirects to a 505 error
Cause
The model is not the correct one and the res_id is undefined
Solution
Specify the model and the res_id to _notify_get_action_link
when creating the link with kwargs
SPECIFICATIONS
Propagate message value through various notification sub methods. That way
we can rely on them if model seems void.
Also limit values given as URL parameters to some white listed values.

Python 3.8 changed the equality rules for bound methods to be based on
the *identity* of the receiver (`__self__`) rather than its *equality*.
This means that in 3.7, methods from different instances will compare
(and hash) equal, thereby landing in the same map "slot", but that isn't
the case in 3.8.
While it's usually not relevant, it's an issue for `GroupCalls` which is
indexed by a function: in 3.7, that being a method from recordsets
comparing equal will deduplicate them, but not anymore in 3.8, leading
to duplicated callbacks (exactly the thing GroupCalls aims to avoid).
Also, the API of `GroupCalls` turned out to be unusual and weird. The
bug above is fixed by using a plain list for callbacks, thereby avoiding
comparisons between registered functions. The API is now:
callbacks.add(func) # add func to callbacks
callbacks.run() # run all callbacks in addition order
callbacks.clear() # remove all callbacks
In order to handle aggregated data, the `callbacks` object provides a
dictionary `callbacks.data` that any callback function can freely use.
For the sake of consistency, the `callbacks.data` dict is automatically
cleared upon execution of callbacks.

PURPOSE
Currently tools and asserts for mail tests are located inside test_mail
module. It makes difficult to re-use them in application tests or force them
to write custom quick and dirty tools and asserts. Purpose of this merge
is therefore to move tools classes and mocks to mail directly and use them
in various sub modules.
SPECIFICATIONS
Have class, mocks, tools and asserts available in mail so that all modules
below from mail can use them.
Including
* mock mail gateway in a clean way: mock server connection, email building
and sending;
* allow to simulate errors while sending emails to test corner cases;
* provide tools to insert emails in mail gateway;
* mock mail application to check record creation (message, notifications,
mails, ...);
* mock bus notification;
* provide clearer assert methods for bus and mail notifications;
* provide clearer emails sending and content methods;
* provide a with_user tool context manager for tests allowing to quickly
change current user given a login;
Most of those tools, asserts and mocks come from test_mail/tests/common.py.
They have been partially rewritten to be easier to use or to perform tests
more cleanly.
Future commits will gradually update existing tests in test_mail, test_mass
mailing and test_mail_full.

This commit improves common classes and add helpers for mail tests.
Future commits will use this new stuff to improve the tests.
* improve existing models and add some of them. There are now several
models
* mail.test.simple: chatter-enabled record without any really advanced
feature. Can be used everywhere standard chatter and communication
tests are required;
* mail.test.track: chatter-enabled record with basic value tracking
and responsible tracking;
* mail.test.activity: chatter-enabled record using activities;
* mail.test.full: complete chatter-enabled record with advanced
tracking, automatic subscription and automatic email send based on
templates and tracking;
* mail.test: chatter-enabled record having an alias. It can be used
where umbrella record like projects or teams has to be used in
tests;
* add MockEmails test class: this class mocks the mail gateway so that
tests can work on emails without actually sending them. It is taken
out of TestMail class to clearly separate features from class;
* improve created data in the various classes and prepare work to
lessen created data during tests;
* add helpers on base test class, notably
* sudoAs: context manager to run a code snippet using a given user;
* assertNotifications: assert notification content, aka Inbox or email
notification and their content; may be subject to change depending on
mail evolution;
* assertEmails: check content of sent emails;
Currently partners have a boolean field to choose whether to receive
notifications only in their Odoo inbox or to receive them in their inbox
and by email. This leads to several issues :
* if a customer is configured to not receive emails he will not receive
any notification on sales orders, leads, ... This is not clearly
indicated to the salesman and it is not easy to know how to change
that behavior
* if an user chooses to receive emails and does not use its inbox a lot
of notifications stay in Odoo. The user has to manually set them as
done to make them disappear which is redundant.
This commit changes that behavior. From now on customers will always
receive all notifications by email. Indeed Odoo is not a customer oriented
mailbox. Moreover sales orders or discussions on leads send to customers
should always be sent by email as it is the standard communication
mechanism. Users will be able to choose to receive notifications in Odoo
or by email. The choice is no longer inbox or inbox + email, but inbox
or email. Choosing one option or the other one depends on the way the
user wants to work.
Technically the field is moved on the users model and selection keys
are renamed. Notification process is modified
* notified_partner_ids contains as before specified recipients as well
as followers matching the subtype
* customers and users working with emails are notified. During that
process customers notifications are marked as done to be able to
track the email state without having needaction. Users notifications
are currently deleted as we do not track their email state.
The removal of partner field implies changes in various addons that
define partner data with this field set in the values.
Currently almost all mail tests run on mail.channel model. Indeed it is
the only model inheriting from mail.thread and mail.alias when having only
mail installed. However channel model have several specific features and
is not totally a standard mail.thread model. For example notification
recipients are computed a bit differently.
Since 4f9105a4ef mail module has a test
model allowing to perform tests on a very simple mail.thread-like model.
This commit make mail tests use this test model instead of mail.channel
everywhere it is possible. Channel model should be used only when tests
are channel-dependent.
This commit remove required alias on res.users model. It also removes the
inheritance of mail.alias.mixin. The field alias_id is kept and allow people
to use aliases on users if they want. However there is no default void alias
created for each user anymore.
Default from of mail.message does not use user alias anymore. Indeed this
creates issues with aliases not being correctly configured and can be
confusing compared to private channels. Using user aliases is therefore
now done manually instead of being a default behavior.
Mailing lists (mail.channel) should not send specific notification emails.
Indeed there can be a lot of recipients and customizing each email can
take time to compute. This leads to posting a message on a mail.channel
being very slow.
It is now possible for a model to customize the notification email
recipients computation. The first use is to ensure that mail.channel
encodes recipients using email_to instead of recipients_ids. This way
less processing is performed on notification emails.
This is a manual cherry-pick of commit d4a1eb4435
that was not forard ported. Mail has indeed evolved since 8.0 and its
forward port was not an easy task.
This commit also includes the fix of mail.channel recipients. All are now
considered as equal and receive a simple notification email. No distinction
is done between partners and users. The notification emails for channels
should be as simple as possible.
Mailing lists (mail.group) should not send specific notification emails.

Main changes :
- mail.notification model is removed. People do not receive notifications
anymore. Instead two ways of following documents exist
- using a channel; messages will be displayed on the channel itself
in a near future commit
- following with its partner; messages will all be considered as
needaction, using a new m2m table. People should receive less
needaction messages by following less records by themselves.
There is no more read / unread state anymore. Instead only needaction
messages are considered. Todo (Favorites) messages still exist, and are
stores on a new m2m table instead of using decorated notifciations.
- the main filter for documents is not message_unread anymore, but
message_needaction. A lot of views and filters have been updated
accordingly.
- the vote feature has been removed
Some features from live_chat have been moved to the mail module :
- channels now have members, replacing followers;
- a decorated m2m is used to link channels and members. It stores the last
seen message on the channel for a specific partner;
- channels do not create menu entries anymore, because the
NewChatter will have its own display and use of channels;
- access rights have been updated accordingly, using members instead of
followers
model has been renamed to mail.channel to prepare the slack modeling.
In future commits the mail.group model will be merged with the channel
model from im_chat. The first move is to rename mail.group into
mail.channel to have a model that will unite both features.
During tests, some creation of user records would unnecessarily trigger
password reset or set a password, both of which would trigger password
hashing which takes some time (for good reasons).
Fix by:
* passing no_reset_password in YAML tests and some Python tests still
missing it (a number of Python tests already used it)
* removing passwords from YAML records as they're never necessary, the
test user records are not expected to ever log in
Some tests (e.g. mail) have expensive and significant DB setup for a
number of small and cheap tests. Using a TransactionCase, the DB setup
far dominates the tests themselves, by up to 10x (mail unit tests take
~130s on my machine, the tests themselves take ~15s).
The SavepointCase introduced here is an hybrid of SingleTransactionCase
and TransactionCase: it uses a single transaction for all tests in a
class, but each test case is isolated by a rollbacked savepoint. This
allows a common DB setup (via setUpClass) while keeping independent
tests.
TransactionCase should remain the primary test case superclass, but
SavepointCase can be a fair optimisation when setup costs far dominate.
