Change the logic of rendering and displaying/hidding the control
elements (buttons, sidebar and pager) of all views. The views do no
more render automatically their elements as this is rather done
through the render_[element] function called by the ViewManager.
This function only appends the element to the $node given as argument.
If no argument is given, then it may appends it to the DOM directly,
within the adequate div of its template.
This allows the ViewManager to attach/detach all elements of the
ControlPanel in an atomic may, to prevent the ControlPanel from
flickering.
Also detach the contents of the ControlPanel in headless mode. Headless
means that the ControlPanel exists, but is hidden. Detaching its
contents permits to have a cleaner DOM.
Also remove the oe_form_dirty class on the buttons in the FormView, as
this class is only used on the view itself.
Side changes:
* base_import: import.js:
Extend render_buttons function to be compliant with the new buttons
rendering logic
* board: dashboard.js:
Set flag search_view to True as the searchview is needed for the
Views displayed in the Dashboard to retrieve the records to display.
Necessary since we do no more construct the searchview when this
is set to false
* google_drive: drive.js,
share: share.js:
Module extending the Sidebar widget often add their own buttons
by extending the start(), which is called each time the Widget
is appended to the DOM. With our new design, this could be done
in start() anymore as it should be done only one. It is now done
in init() instead.
Creation of a widget for the DebugManager and move it from the ControlPanel
to the Systray.
Refactoring of the widget to improve/facilitate the way of adding
options in the DebugManager as the view_editor does.
Add a do_action() function in the WebClient that forwards the action to
the main ActionManager so that widget that are not in the scope of the
ActionManager (e.g. Menu) can performed actions as well.
Note: The DebugManager is currently in the Systray but it will finally be
moved to a dedicated spot above the ControlPanel.
The ControlPanel is still instantiated by the ViewManager.
Changes details:
* web: views.js:
Code related to views header is extracted from the ViewManager
to a new Widget named ControlPanel.
Also uses the headless flag to tell the inner view not to put
its buttons (use case: kanban) or pager (use case: list) in the
header as it is hidden.
* web: view_form.js, base.xml:
Uses the headless flag at initialization of the One2ManyViewManager
widget instead of extending the ViewManager template (which doesn't
handle the header anymore).
* web: view_list.js:
Test on this.options.$pager instead of this.options.$buttons
when dealing with pager.
Note: the behavior for list view is unchanged and has a bug.
If there are more then 80 records to display, only the 80th
first are display, and as there is no pager, there is no way
to see the remaining ones. A fix for this would be to use a
light ControlPanel in One2Many views as well. With this,
there won't be duplicated .oe-'view'-buttons/sidebar/pager
anymore.
* web: view_graph.js, view_pivot.js:
Only render buttons in non-headless mode
* web_dashboard: dashboard.js:
Fix some references that were broken with ControlPanel extraction
* web_view_editor: web_view_editor.js:
Extend ControlPanel instead of ViewManager
* Changes in selector of ControlPanel elements in several addons:
* base_import
* mail
* web
The module system needs to know the dependencies of a given module
before executing the function. This is why the dependencies were
defined once in an array, and then were described one more times in the
call to require.
But a trick can simplify this: the boot function can parse the string
representation of the module and extract the calls to require from it.
It is more work for the processor, but it leads to simpler module
definitions.
