Purpose
=======
In python2 a binary field value is retrieved as a string. Example: company_id.logo = u'xyz'
In python3 a binary field value is retrieved as a binary. Example: company_id.logo = b'xyz'
When trying to render an image on a template, we should pass a stringified version of it.
Specification
=============
Pass the method to_text in the template rendering context and use it.
Before this commit, website.page xml record were created in 2 steps:
1. Create an ir.ui.view record with <template> tag
2. Create a website.page record with <record model="website.page">
But this is useless since website.page inheritS ir.ui.view, you can create both
records just in one <record> tag.
Note: This is NOT TRUE in every case:
Odoo's ORM will suffix external_id of inherited records (in this case the
ir.ui.view created through the website.page record) with its model's name.
This can be a problem in some case (this is an example):
website_crm_template.xml create an ir.ui.view inheriting the
ir.ui.view 'website.contactus'.
But if we didn't keep website.page & ir.ui.view records split for that
specific case, the ir.ui.view would inherit a website.page record
causing an error. (website.contactus would be the id of the page record
while the ir.ui.view's id would be website.contactus_ir_ui_view)
In short: when migrating an ir.ui.view (<record> xml) to a website.page:
* If there is record inheriting the ir.ui.view ID, then split
website.page & ir.ui.view
* if not, you can create the website.page and its ir.ui.view both in one
record (<record model="website.page").
This commit also removed remaining page="True" from xml template since we
removed the 'page' attribute from ir.ui.view model overrided in website module.
Purpose
=======
- Settings are too complex: too long + too many options that shouldn't be suggested with checkboxes
e.g. twitter roller is now suggested as a new snippet to install from website editor
google maps, slides, forum, etc. should show up in the apps store
- When saving the page I expect to stay in the settings -> no redirection to homepage anymore!
Specification
=============
See task 33620
Now that we're closer to switching to P3 for good, these helpers have
outlived their usefulness, and mostly add noise.
All remaining dict.iter*() or dict.view*() must be converted to the
normal keys(), values() or items() calls.
Whenever the result is likely to be used for more than the scope of a
loop, or when the dict needs to be modified during iteration, the calls
must be wrapped in a ``list()``, to protect the new P3 semantics.
Those cases are very exceptional.
Also removed some dead code or improved the API to remove unnecessary
conversions.
Slug and unslug API is now available in http_routing. Indeed there is no
link to any website or any reason to not support slufigied URLs when
website is not installed. A new unslug_url method is added as a tool
coming from an embedded method from website. Doing it allows to have all
slug related methods defined at the same point.
Support of slug and unslug in qweb rendering is also moved directly in
http_routing version of ir_ui_view instead of website inheritance. This
is done in order to keep things coherent.
Some code from website about ModelConverter is also moved. Indeed both
versions of ir_http uses some kind of placeholder to store the uid
when converting urls to python. This commit unifies it by using the
website one directly in base to simplify the override.
This commit also updates all module importing slug. Enterprise modules
will have to be updated, see related commit.
In Python 3:
* various builtins and dict methods were changed to return
view/iterable objects rather than lists
* and the separate Python 2 view/iterable builtins and methods were
removed altogether
This is problematic when using these items as list (which the happens
repeatedly in Odoo), but more viciously when iterating *multiple times*
over them (which also happens, which I've messed up multiple times while
writing this, and which is a pain to debug even when you've just created
the issue).
Convert all code using these to semantics-matching cross-version
helper functions to get the LCD behaviour between P2 and P3, and
forbid the builtins via lint.
issue #8530
Most people install the im_livechat module and expect it
to be enabled automatically on their website.
When it doesn't work they try to use the integration JS
code and add it to their website layout, which does not
work as expected.
Setting it as auto-installed solves the issue.
