Caused by a stupid programming error.
Also refactor a bit the code that performs mention RPCs (that are
throttled) to allow to override the throttling value for the tests.
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.
Before this rev., if concurrent calls to 'read_follower' were
performed, it might happen that the read followers appearead twice
in the follower dropdown.
This was for example the case when validating an invoice: the
customer was listed twice as follower.
Note: in this particular case, the record shouldn't be reloaded
twice: this is another bug to adress.
When a user opens a record in a form view, the chatter is
displayed. Then, if he clicks on 'Create', the chatter is removed
from the DOM (there is no chatter in create mode). After saving
the newly created record, the chatter is displayed again, but the
same widget's instance is kept.
However, when being removed from the DOM, the event handlers bound
on elements of the chatter (e.g. 'New Message', 'Log a Note'...
buttons) are automatically unbound.
So before this rev., the buttons didn't work anymore once the form
view had switched to create mode. In this commit, we detach the
chatter's $el before updating the view, so that its handlers aren't
unbound when the old content is replaced by the new one.
Activities now have recommended next activities. Based on next activities
configured on activity types, it allows to implement light workflows
using next activities feature.
This feature was removed when refactoring crm activities to generic
activities. People asking to remove it were visibly wrong and it is
now implemented back as it was in v10.
With the new JS test framework, we had experimented with an autodestroy
feature, meaning that all views/widgets are automatically destroyed
after a while. By default, it was 50ms, because we could not hook some
code to run after the end of the current test.
For various reasons, this was not a good idea: some side effects, such
as modifications of the session or of the DOM (with modals) could
interfere with other tests. This commit disable the feature.
From now on, we will have to destroy each widgets created in a test.
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
