Purpose of this commit is to allow moderation on incoming messages in
discussion channels. On some channels on which moderation is required
messages should be in a pending moderation stage. Moderators can accept
or refuse messages as well as always allow or ban messages coming from
a given set of emails.
Channels now have an option to be moderated. Moderators can be added on
channels. They have access to a specific UI in Discuss to see and take
action on messages waiting for moderation.
Concerning mail.thread message that are pending moderation are not notified.
It means nobody receives a notification about them. Moderation process calls
the notification once the message is validated.
Various features included in this commit :
* a model is added to store the decision about emails, allow or ban;
* access rights are updated so that only moderators can modify moderation
fields on message;
* specific bus notifications are send to moderated people as well as to
moderators on incoming emails as well as when a decision is taken;
* options are added on channels to send explanations to moderated emails;
* options are added on channels to write and send guidelines explaining
why and how moderation is performed;
* a reminder is send daily to moderators with remaining messages to moderate;
* discuss UI is adapted and a new channel is added below Inbox and Starred
giving access to moderation tools;
* chanenl UI is adapted allowing to moderate directly inside channels;

The vendored html2text is *really* old and absolutely not
P3-compatible.
There is a maintained version on Pypy which is, so use that and stop
vendoring html2text.
The boolean field `is_mail_thread` on `ir.model` allows to create custom models
that inherit from model `mail.thread`. The selection field `track_visibility`
on `ir.model.fields` allows to add tracking on custom fields.
Also change the order on model `ir.model` to make mail thread models appear first.
This commit introduces generic activities to use in your addons. Activities are
actions user have to take on a document like making a phonecall or organizing
a meeting. Activities come with the mail module as they are integrated in the
Chatter but are not bundled with mail.thread.
New models are
* mail.activity.type: used to categorize activities. Each type is a different
kind of activity e.g. call, mail, meeting. An activity can be generic i.e.
available for all models using activities; or specific to a model in which
case res_model_id field should be used.
* mail.activity: an actual activity to perform. Activities are linked to
documents using res_id and res_model_id fields. Activities have a deadline
that can be used in kanban view to display a status. Once done activities
are unlinked and a message is posted. This message has a new activity_type_id
field that indicates the activity linked to the message.
This commit introduces a mail.activity mixin to use in various addons that
enables the activities feature. It works like the mail.thread mixin. It defines
a activity_ids one2many field toward activities using res_id and res_model_id.
Various related / computed fields are also added to have a global status of
activities on documents.
Activities come with a new JS widget for the form view. It is integrated in the
Chatter widget although it is a separate widget. It displays activities linked
to the current record and allow to schedule, edit and mark done activities.
Use widget="mail_activity" on activity_ids field in form view to use it.
There is also a kanban widget defined. It defines a small widget to integrate
in kanban vignettes. It allow to manage activities directly from the kanban
view. Use widget="kanban_activity" on activitiy_ids field in kanban view to
use it.
Next commits will aim at integrating activities inside main Odoo addons.
Thanks to R&D India for their work and testing on this task. Thanks to belgian
Usabiliteam for reviewing and testing it. Thanks to @jem-odoo for the final
review. May his soul lie in peace with the trumpets of paradise.
Currently it is impossible in Discuss to know whether an email has been sent
to a customer and whether it failed or bounced. A notified partner has an
entry in the needaction m2m table. In this commit we decorate this table to
add fields about the email notification: is an email sent, did it failed, did
it bounce.
This information is kept only for customers. Internal users does not use this
information. Moreover their notification is deleted once the message is read
in the Chatter. This avoids having a notification table that grows quickly.
Chatter now holds a new icon for email details. It allows to know on a thread
status of emails sent to customers.
- im_chat.session will be replaced by mail.channel
- im_chat.shortode is renamed into mail.shortcode
- im_chat.presence is moved to bus module
- js and controller code is moved from im_chat to mail module
This commit only move files, and modify manifests, bundles, ... The code will be adapt in the next commits.
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
renamed to mail.channel.
At this point no model has been renamed; only files have been moved.
n mail, mail_group files have been renamed to mail_channel. The
website_mail_group addon has been renamed to website_mail_channel.
Some internal references have been updated (templates, linked files).
This commit introduces a new view type, the timeline view. This view is
intended to display messages like the previous chatter. This is now a view
like the form or list view. Like other views it will be possible to have
custom templates for some specific needs, allowing customization.
[IMP] mail: the value tracking is modified. Previously messages were created
containing the modified values. Those values are now stored, using a new
model mail.tracking.value. The message body is dynamically build based on
the values. Tests have been updated.
This version is temporary. Indeed two main modifications will come in a short
future :
- the new design will improve the display
- the slack mode will change the way the Inbox and notifications are managed
All glory to the Hypnotoad.
Special thanks to Valerie Pirenne (vpi), Jerome Maes (jem) and Richat Mathot
(rim) that did not code but said a lot of things. Martin Trigaux (mat) did
nothing, a bit like for the slides modules, but he is busy sending emails.
