Since chrome headless has been merged, js error messages are
difficult to read: some information was missing or only displayed in
full all log.
All console.error() will now be displayed in build details, and will
appear just before the python assertion.
XMO's improvement will also be used on all log: Using module and
classname of the class calling phantomJS.
Also: some small improvements on error messages to make them easier to read
Note: this commit also shown that some error were not detected:
now we will fail in any case if js log an error.
In both test util functions (`dragAndDrop`) and tours, using elements in iframe
was not supported.
As a jQuery selector won't work with an iframe, when using a selector like
`div.o_my_class iframe p:first` the tour manager will split the selector, which
will result to `$('div.o_my_class iframe').contents().find('p:first')`.

The direction parameter will now have a real impact on the web interface and
completly switch the direction of the interface.
Add the dependency rtlcss to switch the direction with a css postprocessor.
Two different assets will be generated for ltr or rtl
/web/content/<...>/web.assets_backend.0.css
and
/web/content/<...>/rtl/web.assets_backend.0.css
to be able to differentiate it easily
Adapt the css and views to be easier to switch direction
Render graph as it is, do not move y-axis right side, as per mathematical rule
value goes left from origin are considered negative, so keep graph as it is
for right to left language
add test cases for language direction specific assets bundle
if language direction is rtl then we also store css files in assets bundle
now we store two assets bundle, one for ltr and one for rtl language direction
test two assets bundles generated, also test two assets bundle generated for en_US and ar_SY

Before this commit, there were 3 different implementations for the same
feature: the "more" button in the community navbar, the "+" button for
the website menu and the "+" button in the enterprise navbar. As those
implementation were now broken with BS4, it was a good time to share the
code of those 3 features.
Odoo used to declare two main colors: primary and optional (which are
purple and turquoise in enterprise). Those were respectively assigned
to the 'primary' bootstrap variable and the 'btn-primary' bootstrap
variable.
BS4, however, does not allow to have a different primary color for
buttons. Instead, the 'primary' color is used for all 'primary' related
components and utility classes, same as for all other colors. So, if we
want to keep our enterprise buttons green, our 'optional' colors had to
become our 'primary' color. The old odoo primary is then renamed to the
'odoo' color.
The palette of grays is now larger by default and is numbered from 100 to
900 alongside the $black and $white variables. The equivalence for older
variables and the way we used them is:
$gray-darker -> gray 900 (unused before)
$gray-dark -> gray 900
$gray -> gray 700
$gray-light -> gray 600
$gray-lighter-darker -> gray 400 (the old variable was created by us)
$gray-lighter-dark -> gray 300 (the old variable was created by us)
$gray-lighter -> gray 200
Fortunately, the 'lighter' variations we created fit well in the default
BS4 system ! Unfortunately, our $gray-lighter which carried the same
function as $gray-200 (see above) is very close to the new default
$gray-100 and quite distant from the new $gray-200. This will be handled
in the next commit.
- The dropdown structure was simplified, allowing to get rid of the
3-levels structure induced by <ul/> elements and dropdowns can now
contain anything. The class 'dropdown-item' is now mandatory for
each dropdown clickable element. The class 'dropdown-item-text' can
be used to add same padding and style but without making the element
have a clickable look.
- Dividers now use the class 'dropdown-divider'
- The way dropdowns are opened and hidden also changed (before the
'open' class was added on the `.dropdown-menu` parent, now the
'show' class is added on both the `.dropdown-menu` parent and the
`.dropdown-menu` itself).
- JS-wise, no click event handlers can be put on `.dropdown-toggle`
elements anymore (instead, use handlers for dropdown events).
- Carets are automatically put on `.dropdown-toggle` elements, so this
commit replaces the `.caret` elements with this. This feature was
possible to disable but would prevent us from adding a caret with
scss. Also, this simplifies the DOM. The 'o-no-caret' class was also
introduced to allow using the 'dropdown-toggle' class on non-caret
elements.
- Also adapt the scss to use $caret-width instead of $caret-width-base
Odoo made the bad choice of using the 'btn-sm' class for every button
instead of configuring the padding for default 'btn' to be smaller.
In BS4, the style of btn-sm is actually more complex, lowering the
font-size too. Also, btn-xs was removed so we would not have the
possibility to display smaller button than our default ones.
This commit removes btn-sm wherever it was used. Unfortunately, this
might remove it at some places where it made sense but this can be
restored in a second time.
BS4 do not provide vendor prefixes scss mixins anymore as it is meant
to be used with the 'autoprefixer' library. As we only support the last
version of every major browsers in Odoo, we took the decision to not
use the library as it was also complex to integrate in Odoo. We decided
to do the library's work by hand if it ever become necessary.
- JS Modals were not correctly built anymore, their .modal-body element
was duplicated and many without-effect JS lines were introduced (as a
side effect, the form view design was broken when inside modals)
- Tests were changed to make bugs go unnoticed. For example, the media
dialog functionnality was entirely broken because the .modal-dialog
element was not receiving the correct class anymore.
- The JS translation function is _t, not _
- Do not use the <title/> tag as a regular DOM element, it is meant to
be unique, in the <head/> section
- CSS rules were added to the utils.scss file, which is meant to contain
functions and mixins, otherwise, the rule is duplicated in every asset
- Some icons were still broken, as missed by https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/f90cf060a3cfeb37a67bec83264c0aaab8892b56
- Tests were changed to use [role="dialog"]/footer/header in their
selectors without any reason, this commit restores some of that to
avoid rebase conflicts with the BS4 work.
- ...
Note: other elements should still be discussed, like the direct use of
the 'o_form_label' class in views definition... but those do not cause
direct problems.
Today, Odoo is really tricky to use without seeing the screen, it must be improved to be usable.

Moves this class in an Odoo module so that other addons are able to
require and include the class in order to add different helpers.
This will be usefil in the `stock_barcode` module that will add a `scan`
helper.
Unlike LESS, SCSS variables are not lazy loaded. Our system has thus
to be updated. This commit creates new templates which are t-called
in assets bundles (to replace the old less_helpers template):
- web._assets_utils: regroups the mixins and functions which *can*
(and so should) be available in every asset bundle
- web._assets_primary_variables: regroups the variables (or mixins
used as variables) which *can* (and so should) be available in
every asset bundle
- web._assets_secondary_variables: same as above but provides an
environnement where all the 'primary' ones are accessible. This is
for example useful to handle the community/enterprise split:
// Community primary variables
$o-pink-color: pink; // enterprise color
$o-brand-primary: blue;
// Enterprise primary variables
$o-brand-primary: $o-pink-color;
// Community secondary variables
$o-my-darker-primary: darken($o-brand-primary, 5%);
=> If there was only one variable template, enterprise edition would
have been able to define its primary color at the end but the
darker primary would not have been updated. Using the "!default"
system and putting enterprise definition above would not have
solved the problem as the $o-pink-color would not have been
accessible.
- web._assets_backend_helpers: regroups the variables, mixins and
functions which *can* (and so should) be available in the backend
asset bundle only. This is especially (only?) useful for bootstrap
variables overriddes.
- web._assets_frontend_helpers: regroups the variables, mixins and
functions which *can* (and so should) be available in the frontend
asset bundle only. This is especially (only?) useful for bootstrap
variables overriddes.
Note: bootstrap variables are not accessible in any of those anymore.
If you have variables that should depend on bootstrap, you have 3
solutions:
- Find another way: your variable is probably useless, use bootstrap
variables directly or create a variable that will influence the
value of bootstrap variables. E.g. instead of declaring:
`$myvar: $bootstrapvar * 3`
and using $myvar alone, declare:
`$myvar: 3` and use `$myvar * $bootstrapvar` where needed.
- Declare a copy of the bootstrap variable and use that one. In that
case, you should also force-set the real bootstrap one to be sure
they match (this should be done in appropriate templates mentioned
above). E.g.
```
$o-boostrapvar: 5;
...
$boostrapvar: $o-bootstrapvar;
```
- Set your variable to null and set it to your bootstrap expression
in the file you will need it (where bootstrap variables are accessible)
without forgetting to add the !default flag to allow overriddes.
```
$myvar: null;
...
$myvar: $bootstrapvar * 5 !default;
```
This commit also partly changes the variable names to follow the
convention:
$o-<app_id>-<name> where 'app_id' is the current's app name or a
meaningful unique identifier ("theme" for all themes for example, as
no multiple themes can be installed).
Convert content so that the assets compile on app installation. The
style is still broken after this as the variables/mixins/... are not
defined in the right order (as it did not matter in LESS but does in
SCSS).
This commit basically changes:
- Variables: @var_hello -> $var-hello
- Mixins: .mixin_world() {} -> @mixin mixin-world {}
- Classes used as mixin: .my_class() -> @extend .my_class
- Here there were no other solution than to convert the use of
a mixin call by the use of an extend as a first approximation
- LESS functions -> SCSS functions (e.g. fade -> rgba)
- Move first variable definition before the variable is used
- Still need to make sure last variable definition is at the
right place
With this commit, any component that needs an instance of the
root widget can simply require the module 'root.widget'. Based on
the context (backend, frontend, iframe), the real root.widget
will resolve to either the webclient, the website root instance, or
the iframe root instance.
This is desirable in order for the tour_manager to become a child
of the root widget, as tours are enabled in any of the above contexts.
This commit is a requirement in order to solve an issue with JS services,
in which there should be only one service provider at any given time.
This commit improves the JS code of the mail module,
which comes maily from the new coding guidelines
and the addition of "JS services".
JS services are important objects that do not fit
well in the component tree, such as chat_manager
or ajax.
The benefits of JS services are improved readability
of the code, reduced coupling, and more testable
modules. In particular, discuss was hard to
Summary of the changes:
- ClientAction has been renamed into Discuss
- Clear instantiation of chatManager
- New coding guidelines in most mail modules
- JS Services can interact with each other
- Chat Manager and Window Manager are services
- Window Manager renamed to Chat Window Manager
- bus.bus is now encapsulated in Bus Service (a service)
- The test infrastructure has been tweaked with JS Services
- Chat Mixin has been removed
A future improvement would be to translate some 'trigger' into 'trigger_up'.
In Less, the size_class XXS is defined and used in media queries.
This rev. adds it in JS for sake of consistency.
Code in addons comparing the size_class needed to be adapted due
to the new XXS size_class.
Moreover, we now use the helper 'config.device.isMobile' everywhere
we should, instead of manually comparing the size_class.
Finally, we changed the way the config.device has to be specified
in the test environment. From now on, only the size_class should be
set, and the isMobile flag is computed automatically.
This rev. makes the Rainbowman stop listening to event
'clear_uncommitted_changes' on core.bus, as this event is about to
be removed (in a next commit). It was using it to destroy itself
when such an event was triggered (basically, when the current view
was left).
Instead, we removed the option 'click_close' as, when set to true,
which was the default, the rainbowman was destroyed as soon as the
user clicked outside the raibowman.
Revert 6cb12273e2 which reverted
08d48b0fff.
Issue was the support for sub-parameters (aka @param {type} foo.bar)
where the "parent" parameter was not formal (only present in a
function's docstring, but not in the function's parameters list),
subtype creation would fail to find a root parameter to attach the
sub-parameter to.
This has not actually been fixed, but for the specific case where the
formal parameters list is *completely empty* we fall back on a list of
the docstring's parameters, which works well enough for this case.
Changed at 08d48b0ff but was crashing when building the documentation as not
complient for sphinx
Temporary fix that should be restored when our doc engine will be smarter
To consume a tip, the elements matching the selectors `trigger` and
`extra_trigger` must exist in the dom.
However, the presence of blockUI should prevent the tip to be consumed
in the tour because the user can't physically execute the corresponding action.
Bugs introduced with commit https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/08e92204b661086b27a2d435d3ca06436540c0e0
- The new `rainbowMan` option was always `true`
- When checking the option, it was looked in the wrong object so it was
always considered false (so no more rainbowMan at all...)
Also deactivate the rainbowMan for the automatic tours.
Also refactor the method's documentation.
With this commit, we add a few extra logs to help debugging issues with
phantomjs.
I suspect that the recent problems with phantomjs are due to the
localstorage not being cleared properly, but the logs are not sufficient
to determine the exact cause.

This commit reviews the whole "JS side" of the web_editor and website
apps. This is a first step to be able to improve them with new and
better functionnalities; this commit is not supposed to change any
visual behavior.
The main goal was to achieve a structure similar to the backend one.
Now, the frontend side also has a root widget (like the WebClient)
and all other widgets are attached to it one way or another. This allows
the benefits of using the 'trigger_up' functionnality for example.
As RPC are now mainly done with the `this._rpc` functionnality (being
possible thanks to the parent hierarchy), the frontend will also be
possible to test thanks to QUnit in a future update (besides the "text"
editor side which still requires a refactoring to be able to do that).
---
Here are some of the changes:
(-) conventions and documentation
The code has been updated to follow JS conventions and a lot of code has
been commented (around +2000 lines of comment). This also means that
lots of functions have been renamed to use camelCase or simply to make
their name understandable.
See https://github.com/odoo/odoo/wiki/Javascript-coding-guidelines.
(-) deprecated: web_editor.base
The "web_editor.base" module has been split and does not force the
modules which require it to wait for DOM ready anymore. This was indeed
slowing loading times, but also prevented to use some modules in some
contexts (see the LESS editor use in web_studio which is the subject of
another task).
Now the "editor context" can be got thanks to the "web_editor.context"
JS module with its "get" function.
The "web_editor.base" module should probably not be used anymore (see
its code and recent updates).
(-) new: web.dom_ready
If a JS module should wait for the DOM to be ready to be executed, a
new JS module has been created: "web.dom_ready". This should always
be used in a module which only want to instantiate stuff. Do not
extend (or worst, include) classes after DOM ready.
(-) website.website
The "website.website" module has been split. "website.website" does not
return anything useful anymore, it just initialize some miscellaneous
stuff, without waiting for the DOM to be ready. You might want to check
"website.utils", "website.content.compatibility" or `WebsiteRoot`. Also
`website.form` has been deleted (use `this._rpc`), so has been
`website.error`. `website.prompt` will be removed in a future update to
be replaced by `Dialog.prompt`.
(-) widgets are great
Many classes which were not widgets are now widgets. This allows them to
use the 'events', the 'xmlDependencies' and the 'this._rpc' features for
example. Here are some of the main ones:
- Snippet options: these were classes with a `$el` for the menu element
and `$target` for the customized element. This is still the case
but following standard `Widget` structure (one exception: using
`this.$(...)` searches in the `$target` as before this update).
- Snippet animations: instead of class instances with a `$target`
element which can be `start` and `stop`, these are now standard
widgets which can be `start` and `destroy`. `this.$target` is
an alias to `this.$el` for ease of compatibility.
- Snippet editors: instead of class instances in charge of an editor
overlay, these are now widgets. Each "child" snippet editor is
properly attached as a "child", which allows editors to communicate
and to be properly destroyed.
(-) root widgets and website navbar
The frontend is different of the backend. In the backend, the page has
an empty <body/> element and all the components are instantiated from
parent to children (i.e. the `WebClient` is instantiated and is in
charge of instantiating the `ControlPanel`, etc). The frontend cannot
work like that on page loadings as they are way more frequent than in
the backend and we do not want them to flicker. A frontend page is
loaded as a <body/> element which already contains the website navbar
and its menus and the whole content page. JS code has to be "attached"
to these existing elements. This is possible thanks to the `RootWidget`
instances and the specialized `WebsiteRoot`, `IframeRoot` and
`WebsiteNavbar` (see code for details).
(-) lazy loading
No more (or at least a lot less) XML/JS has to be loaded on page
loading, thanks to the use of the `Widget.xmlDependencies` feature.
XML which have to be lazy loaded is loaded only on related Widget
instantiation if necessary, which allows to execute a lot of JS code
before the DOM is ready and to start many widgets on DOM ready (not
later). A visual benefit of this is clicking on the 'edit' button as
soon as it is possible: before this commit, this was sometimes not
doing anything as event handlers were not binded yet.
Still a possible exception: loading the session and locales. This may
be asynchronous stuff which is still required before widget
instantiations but this will be the subject of another task.
(-) deprecated code and code location
More than reviewing code and organizing it, many apparent dead code was
removed. More importantly, mislocated code was put in the right app.
This is the case for snippet animations which is a concept for website
apps but was defined in the web_editor app, or some translation concepts
which were part of website but should have been part of web_editor.
---
There are probably more things to say about this commit but I will let
the comments speak for those.
* web_editor, web_tour
jQuery has the built-in ':visible' selector. This is however not enough
as this only checks if the element and its parents have a visible
'display' property. Ironically, if the element has the 'visibility'
property set to 'hidden', it will be considered ':visible' by jQuery.
This commit creates the ':hasVisibility' and ':hasOpacity' selectors
which respectively check if the element and its parents have a visible
'visibility' property and a visible 'opacity' property.
Before this commit, it was only possible to set an option with
his value.
For example:
<select name="test">
<option value="1">One</option>
<option value="2">Two</option>
</select>
The only way to set the first option was to do the following:
run: "text 1"
With this commit, we can now select the first option with his text value:
run "test One"
We need this because in 'main_flow_tour', some values are generated ids.
* website
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that the duration between two odoo
actions is always less than 10 seconds. Indeed, loading translations
is for example quite slow. With this commit, we are now able to modify
the timeout duration for a specific step.
* web_editor, web_planner, website
The 'Dialog' class is used in both backend and frontend. Also, lots of
actions can be done without the use of any modal. It thus makes sense
to lazy load its related xml only when a first modal is opened.
This change also allows to get rid of the "base_common.xml" file as the
dialog template is the only remaining one in there and, in the future
website update, it will allow to not load any static XML file on website
page loadings.
This commit introduces the 'rainbowification' feature to the web client
(and to some affected addons). This feature is essentially a way to
display a nice friendly message when some business event happens. For
example, a encouraging message is displayed when the user clear her/his
inbox, or when a salesman closes a deal.
The mechanism currently only displays a 'rainbowman', but could be
extended later to add other kind of animation.
There are a few different ways to display a 'rainbowman':
- any JS code can simply trigger_up an event ('show_effect') with some
options: for example
this.trigger_up('show_effect', {
type: 'rainbow_man',
fadeout: 'no',
message: $done,
click_close: false,
});
- an action returned by the server can have an 'effect' key, with some
options
- the do_execute_action method accepts a 'effect' option. This is
useful when one wants to specify a rainbow on an action button in a
form view
Joint work with: dbh <dbh@odoo.com>, ged <ged@odoo.com>
* web_editor, web_tour, website_event_track
Before this commit, one JS file was responsible for all the library
extensions and fixes. There were two main problems with this system:
- The file was only available in the backend (as some extensions are
made on backend-only libraries).
- Some other modules were doing library customizations.
This commit creates one file per library to regroup their associated
customization and adds them in the right asset. These are placed in
the web module and every other module should avoid doing customizations.
This allows to have libraries consistency accross all modules and
between the backend and the frontend.
