- base.view_base_module_uninstall
- base.base_module_install_review_view_form
- base.base_module_install_review_view_form
were the only 3 views in which a node was set outside the
<form>, <tree>, <kanban>, ... node.
```sql
master-all=# SELECT name FROM ir_ui_view WHERE type != 'qweb' AND inherit_id IS NULL AND arch_db ->> 'en_US' not ilike '<' || type || '%';
name
---------------------------------------
Uninstall module
base.module.install.request.view.form
base.module.install.review.view.form
(3 rows)
```
These were introduced by odoo/odoo#99438.
The goal was to set these warnings on top of the form view,
with no margins for a better UI.
While this serves an understandable purpose,
not having <form> as the root node causes issues:
- First, as seen in the above revision,
it requires to have to specify the view type in the XML data file,
because the view type is guessed from the root node of the view
```diff
<record id="view_base_module_uninstall" model="ir.ui.view">
<field name="name">Uninstall module</field>
<field name="model">base.module.uninstall</field>
+ <field name="type">form</field>
```
- Second, in the view post-processing, some implementations
are based on the root node of the view,
and not having `<form>` as the root node for instance makes
the view not editable, or not pass the `readonly`, `required`
attributes from the Python model.
https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/7b9bd9d37731fae724dc5d91da656dab70aa9ad4/odoo/addons/base/models/ir_ui_view.py#L1146-L1147
https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/7b9bd9d37731fae724dc5d91da656dab70aa9ad4/odoo/addons/base/models/ir_ui_view.py#L1375-L1379
We could use the view type from the model itself,
instead of the root node, to determine the type of the view,
but then you wouldn't be able to use attributes set on the view node,
such as `editable="1"`, to determine if the root/view node is editable
or not.
https://github.com/odoo/odoo/blob/7b9bd9d37731fae724dc5d91da656dab70aa9ad4/odoo/addons/base/models/ir_ui_view.py#L1352
Because the `<form>` node wasn't the root node in the uninstall form view,
the modifiers attributes (`readonly`, `required`) were not passed
from the field python model to the view,
and the Studio fields
`custom_views`, `custom_reports`, `custom_models`, `custom_fields`
were editable in the view, while they shouldn't as those
are readonly computed fields.
A constraint will be added in master, to prevent developers
to create views with as root node something else than the view type.
The constraint is not added in stable 16.0 to avoid to suddenly
raise a constraint exception for modules from the community
and customers in production databases.
