Added a possibility to authorize a certain credit amount and capture another (smaller or equal) at the end of the transaction.
For instance, you want to print 2 jobs and one of them fails, you will be able to only print the one that succeeded.
* [ADD] doc: iap tutorial
Should be easier to approach than the raw APIDoc.
contains:
- overview of the flow
- tutorial (coalroller) with guidelines
- technical description of objects/helpers
The Qweb render method returns a strign encoded in byte.
As we want to dump this into a json string in iap.charge,
we need to decode it properly in UTF-8, before the dump.
This problem appeared in Python3.
Errors that are not whitelisted are not managed correctly due to the jsonrpc behaviour in Odoo.
When we make a post in json using iap.jsonrpc function, it contacts iap.odoo.com.
However, if this url does not respond, it falls back to the 'typo' page and the answer to the call
has a '200' status code but with an 'error' key in its response.
Currently, we manage the errors via whitelisting, which hides this kind of errors.
We opted to raise this error (odoo server side) as a UserError and to add UserError to the whitelist.
IAP allow app publishers to charge for ongoing services. In that context, Odoo
acts mostly as a payment platform between the service user (client) and the service
provider (Odoo App developer).
