With this commit, the menu item for editing a view in debug mode has been
changed.
Instead of "Edit List View", it is now "Edit View: List".
That way, the code is shorter, generic, and translatable.
Exception to above changes: search view, which is unchanged
(it remains "Edit Searchview")
This commits aims at adding an accesskey (a shortcut) to all buttons
in odoo. This is done by either by assigning an accesskey in the view
XML or by automatically assigning a key to the buttons using the first
available (not yet assigned as a shortcut key) letter of the text of the
button, failing that we use the latin alphabetical order to find the
first unused key.
Included in this commit:
1. Using the ALT key, automatically assign
2. When the ALT key is pressed, show the assigned shortcuts
3. Assign a number to the menu items (enterprise)
4. Activate number accesskeys without using SHIFT
5. Extra logic to support the activation of the alphabetical
accesskeys without needing to add the SHIFT key in the key
combination (except for Firefox on linux)
6. Assign a fixed accesskey to the search field
Not done:
1. Executing the primary action on dialogs using SHIFT+ENTER
2. Show the input using TAB on the appswitcher screen
Things to consider:
1. Fixing more access keys on forms that share the same features
(b.e. Validate in customer invoice and vendor bills)
2. Not assigning keys to the chatter section
This rev. adds the 'sessionStorage' service, allowing to write and
read stuff in/from the sessionStorage (with a compatibility layer
to handle the case where the sessionStorage can't be used, e.g.
private browsing in Safari, like it is already done for the
localStorage).
This new service is necessary for the ActionManager to store the
current action, so that it can be fully restored on F5 (this comes
with the next commit).
Note that we do not do a custom build anymore, since we lazyload the
files anyway. A custom build will save a few kb, but will not do any
meaningful change to the user experience. However, it dies impact
negatively our ease of maintenance, so standard build it is.
Before this commit, a client action was simply a subclass of Widget.
This is quite simple, but not really enough for the ActionManager. The
ActionManager needs to handle client actions in a different way that
view actions. Sometimes, it needs to check if a method exists before
calling it.
With this commit, we introduce a new abstraction: the AbstractAction
class, which defines a common API for all actions managed by the web
client.
Note that the API proposed in this commit is just the beginning. We will
introduce other methods in the future, to manage the focus, or the
scroll position, for example.
The following tweaks have been applied on mobile devices:
- remove left and right arrow in control panel
- enable swipe navigation (instead of left/right arrows)
- replace 'Today' button by a calendar icon
- remove static text 'Attendees:' in events
- shorten header content in week mode to prevent them from
overlapping
- ensure that the calendar fits in the screen
Also introduce a mobile test suite for the calendar view.
Task #31449
In particular, qunit 2.3.0 solves this issue: https://github.com/qunitjs/qunit/issues/1119
A consequence of the above issue is that some tests could have completed successfully,
although an error was raised.
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.
Purpose
=======
Add the possibility to easily attach a document on a record. That could be used for to attach receipts on expense for example.
Specification
=============
Add a new widget (AttachDocument) to allow attach document from mobile/web directly on record form
After attaching document it will call action given on widget, that action will be a method name on given model
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'.
The goal of this rev. is to improve the user onboarding on the
Project app: when the user creates a new project, he is now guided
to properly configure the stages of its project.
To do so, we added a new mechanism in the Kanban view, allowing to
define examples of processes that can be used in the corresponding
view.
The style of the ColumnQuickCreate widget has also been changed.
Part of task #38740
This rev. improves the QuickCreate widget for grouped Kanban views.
It allows specifying in the Kanban arch a form view xmlid, e.g.:
<kanban quick_create_view="some_form_view_xmlid">
...
</kanban>
When this attribute is set, the referenced form view is loaded and
rendered inside the QuickCreate widget. A real FormView widget is
instantiated, meaning that all form view mechanisms are available
in the QuickCreate (modifiers, default_get, onchanges, widgets...).
Task #27475.
We would like to make the "no item found" screens more appealing.
Before this commit, it shows a small help tip in the top-left
corner of the screen, just below the "Create" button.
With this commit, these help tips have been replaced by onboarding
screens, which consist of a picture and some text below, both of which
are horizontally centered.
The texts have been slightly changed, so that they are shorter and clearer.

This rev. is the first part (out of 3) of the refactoring of the
ActionManager and ViewManager layer of the webclient.
The main changes are:
- there is no ViewManager anymore, its work is now handled by the
ActionManager itself, but isolated in a specific file ; this
eases a lot of things, as the breadcrumbs handling for example.
- the ActionManager code is converted to the new coding principles
and guidelines ; mainly, children widgets communicate with it by
triggering events up, and not by function calls anymore.
- the ActionManager layer is now testable, and a lot of tests have
already been written.
- the code in other addons has been adapted consequently.
What's coming next:
- introduce the 'AbstractAction' Widget, and make client actions
and view controllers inherit from it ; this widget will
implement a common API that could be used uniformly by the
ActionManager (e.g. restore(), canBeLeft(), renderButtons(),
getTitle()...).
- move the ControlPanel handling from the ActionManager to the
AbstractAction.
Before this commit, the way mode was handled was not optimal. The end
result was correct (the widget were properly created/displayed in
edit/readonly as required), but useless work was done. In particular,
if we have list/x2manys with widgets and modifiers, it could happen that
widgets were created in edit mode, then destroyed and recreated in
readonly mode.
This could happen in some important views, for example, any view with a
field many2many_tags with a readonly modifiers (pretty much all views
handling taxes)
In this commit, we add a 'editable' attribute to list renderer. This is
necessary, because the list renderer is not actually editable when it is
in a x2many in a form view which is in readonly mode. Also, we need to
manage the distinction between the fact that a list view is editable,
and the fact that some widgets are created in edit and other in readonly
mode, depending on modifiers, and on which line is being edited.
We also add a benchmark (courtesy of CHM) to be able to measure the
performance impact of edit/readonly/onchange in a larger form view.
Before this commit, running this form benchmark on my machine gave a
number of 0.4 op/sec, and after, it increases to 1.26 op/sec, so a
pretty large improvement.
This rev. introduces a new test suite meant to test the webclient
components on mobile devices. The key 'config.device.isMobile' is
forced to true in this test suite, so that mobile specific JS files
are properly executed, which isn't the case in the classic JS test
suite (setting isMobile to true in the test definition is too late,
as the JS files are already processed).
For now, this new test suite contains a single test, which was
skipped until this rev. as it couldn't be executed in the classical
JS test suite.
Both suites are executed at each build of the runbot, and they
can be manually executed from the webclient as well (via the debug
manager).
When a user clicks on an input or a select field
in Safari on IOS, Safari has a behavior of zooming-in
on the field when the keyboard opens.
Even after the user dismisses the keyboard, the screen
still stays zoomed-in. The user has to then zoom out manually.
Now, the user is not allow to zoom-in at all.
This is already the case with the Android application.
We now have the same behavior between the two apps.
This commit refactors the JS and LESS of the new mobile version
of the grouped kanban views. It ensures that the touchSwipe
library is lazy-loaded (only in mobile, when entering a kanban
view).
This commit aims to improve the UX of grouped Kanban views on
mobile devices. Only one column is now displayed, full width. The
columns' records are lazy-loaded. The user can swipe horizontally
to navigate through columns (thanks to the touchSwipe library).
* crm, project
Add a new feature which allows to put a progressbar in the kanban
columns. The progressbar shows with the same color the amount of
records whose value of a given field are the same in the column.
It also indicate the sum of another given field or simply the total
number of records. It also allows to subgroup the column content.
To define a progressbar, add this as a direct child of the kanban
arch:
<progressbar field="<name of the field to use for subgroups>"
colors="{<one possible value for the above field>: <success, warning or danger>, ...}"
sum="<name of the field to sum or nothing to use total number of records>"/>
Also:
- Properly update record model data's parentID when moving a record
- ...
With the new views, we lost a (almost unused and undocumented) feature:
the ability to instantiate custom widgets in a form view, not linked to
a particular field. For example:
<widget type="weekly_timesheet" attrs="{'readonly': [['state', 'not in', ['new', 'draft']]]}"/>
We reintroduce this feature in this commit, with a nice twist: it also
works for the list view and the kanban view.
Two things happen in this commit
* move portal less from web to portal. This code has been wrongly
moved to web when moving the customer portal and should be in
portal module;
* merge customer portal generic less and customer portal chatter
specific less into the same file;
We should now have only one less file for customer portal less and
located in the right addon.
This commit moves the whole customer portal to the portal module.
It now completely uses portal and http_routing features and is not
dependent on website anymore.
An override of web controller is added in portal in order to redirect
portal users to /my instead of /web. That way once having the customer
portal installed all share users are correctly redirected to their
account.
All modules defining customer portal templates and controllers are
updated accordingly.
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

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.
In the list controller, some code to determine the active domain to
export was causing a crash. It was easy to see: just select all records
in a list view, then click on 'Export' in the sidebar.
Note that the data_export code is still quite old, and did evolve
organically. It does not conform to our new design principles, in
particular, the way component should communicate. But this is a task for
another day.
