Since the new views merge, a lot of design elements were broken. This
was particularly impacting the fields in the editable list view; indeed
the editable list view is not using an inline form view anymore so the
fields in the list were not properly styled as the LESS was still
defined assuming the form view environment (for example the invalid
fields were red for o2m fields in form view but not in editable list
view even though they got the right CSS class).
This commit refactor the LESS following these rules:
- No more division of non-layout and layout rules. Dividing LESS rules
in x_layout.less and x.less was a mistake. Many rules can be
considered to be layout and not layout at the same time, developers
always have to switch from one file part to the other, many CSS
selectors (and rules!) are duplicated for nothing, ...
- Field style is extracted from x_view.less and put in the new
fields.less file. As before, the fields_extra.less will contain the
rules specific to community so that the enterprise repo can override
those by replacing the whole file.
- Many classes have been renamed so that o_form_x_y becomes o_x_y as
many classes can now be applied outside of form view. These classes
should not be used in templates anyway.
The commit also changes the DOM of fields so that it is more minimalist
(no useless parent div, etc).
Input elements are not automatically styled anymore, they have to get
the o_input class explicitely. This allows to fix lots of small style
bugs of previous versions (required monetary field had not the proper
style, readonly m2m tags appeared as editable, ...). This also improves
the LESS code.
The editable list view should also completely stop flickering on chrome
and firefox.
The commit also removes the orange outline on list view dirty cells.
The commit also removes deprecated static xml, LESS and other code.
Notice there are still styles to restore/fix and LESS to improve.
Since 54245deebd, when you clicked twice
on the button "Confirm" on a slow connection, you could get an error as
values is not always defined.
This commit fixes the bad indentation level :)
The new views and widgets (at least some of them) first landed
in web_studio (v10), and they we moved later to web, so changes
in web_studio need to be applied in web.
We replace a bunch of formatting and parsing functions by an object
(parse or format) which can be used to dispatch on the correct type. It
allows us to remove the format_field and parse_field functions.
Also, we camelcase our new code and add some comments.
This commit introduce a full redesign of all JS views. We started
basically from scratch. The goal was to unify all the various views
under a common framework, to make them testable, to make then usable in
different conditions (in studio, or in the frontend), and to make our
lives easier.
Some important points are:
- we introduced new coding guidelines (camelCase, 80 chars width, ...)
- we have a brand new testing framework (still QUnit based)
- kanban view moved to the web addon
- calendar view (formerly web_calender) moved to web as well
- the tree view was removed
- all new code should be documented
We hope that this code is the start of a new era for the Odoo web
client, we want to have a high quality codebase, well documented, well
tested, well designed.
Work done by the framework team: mostly aab, ged, chm, dmo, qsm
Main idea of this commit is to simplify the various options of
ir.actions.server model. Purpose is to make it a simple tool to
execute some actions or python code. This has two main consequences
* create and update server actions are simplified to update only the
current record. Complex options can always be achieved by python code
instead of error-prone option building mechanism;
* condition of server actions is removed. If a condition is necessary it
can either be included in a code server action, or integrated in an
automated action;
This commit features :
* remove 'client_action' server action type. Indeed this can be achieved
with a code server action returning an action;
* remove 'condition' on ir_actions_server model. From now on conditions
and triggers are managed in server action code or using automated
or scheduled action;
* clean 'create and copy a record'. Create and link are the proposed
options. Copy of the record or of a selected record is removed. Link
is simplified by removing the parsed expression that allowed complex
path update. It is simpler to write code than write python-like
expression in char fields;
* remove 'use_write' options. It now simply updates a record;
* remove 'write_expression' as it is replaced by code actions;
* remove 'ref_object' not used anymore with the removal of "choose
a record";
* remove helper to build an expression not used anymore with the removal
of "write expression";
* remove object ID finder;
* removed template display when choosing an email template; just go
on the template if you want more details;
* refactor server action form view to reflect changes. It will be used
in future commits as base view for automated and scheduled actions;
* add 'sequence' in list view;
* add new 'usage' selection field allowing to distinguish which model
uses the server action. Indeed as server action will soon be used
in scheduled or automated actions having a clue about the usage
is always helpful;
Thanks to @fpodoo for the original idea and preliminary work. Thanks to
@jpr-odoo for first developments. Thanks to @jem-odoo and @rco-odoo
for reviewing.
The JS widget is simplified, which a cleaner approach.
For the rendering part:
- the server reads the data
- the JS widget formats/organizes the data
- the template renders the data prepared by the widget
Quick summary of the modifications:
1. The associated field is a text field which contains JSON-encoded
data. The data are read server-side, and not client-side anymore.
2. The widget is an AbstractField, no need of ReinitializeWidgetMixin
anymore. No use of the FieldMonetary widget directly, but use a similar
format_value instead (inspired by ShowPaymentLineWidget).
3. Data formatting (call to format_value) is done in the widget, not in
the template anymore. This seems to be the standard way of doing, since
lunch was the only module where format_value was in the template and not
in the widget.
4. The addition of an order line is cleaner since all necessary data
are prepared server-side.
* Since the user_id field is required, it was impossible to delete
user when he had 'lunch.order' or 'lunch.cashmove'.
We removed required arguments on 'user_id' fields in model and set
"required='1'" on the fields in the view.
* There was a 'ondelete="cascade"' on 'order_line_ids' which does
nothing because it's not supported on One2many fields.
Add a link in the general settings to access easily the default_user form view in order to modify the default access rights
The default_user manager rights declarations in all the applications have been move in a noupdate="1" definition to avoid the manual configuration overwrittings
