remove menu in odoo

ODOO

 

menus 

 

we can add new menu to the parent view by xpath , also we can remove it by xpath just by add 

<delete model="ir.ui.menu" id="module_name.menu_id"/>

phone field in odoo

 

we can make phone field just as char field but we have to control (validate) the user’s 

input for the phone number just as below

Create two fields for the phone (the key field and the number field) just like

("phone_num = fields.Char(string="Phon

("phone_key = fields.Char(string="Key")

then create their view to show them just like in the image

<"group colspan="4" col="4>

    <";table style="width:40%>

         <";tr style="width:100%>

             < td style="fonte-size:13px;width:25;>

                 <b>

                      Phone

                 </b>

             </td>

             <td style="fonte-size:13px;width:15%;">

                 <field name="phone_key" nolabel="1" placeholder="+249"/>

             </td>

             <td style="fonte-size:13px;width:60%;">

                  <field name="phone_num" nolabel="1" placeholder="912312312"/>

             </td>

         </tr>

     </table>

</group>

and finally we have to create the validation function for the phone fields , just like

@api.one

    @api.constrains('phone_num','phone_key')

    def validate_phone(self):

        """

        fuction to validate the input phone number for the user

        """

        if len(str(self.phone_key)) != 4:

            raise ValidationError(_("Wrong Phone Key"))

        if len(str(self.phone_num)) != 9:

            raise ValidationError(_("Wrong Phone Number"))

        for index in range(0,len(str(self.phone_key))):

            if index == 0:

                if str(self.phone_key)[index] != '+':

                    raise ValidationError(_("Wrong Phone Key (It Must Begin With + )"))

            if index != 0:

                if str(self.phone_key)[index] not in ['0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9']:

                    raise ValidationError(_("Wrong Phone Key (It's Conatin Char )"))

        for index in range(0,len(str(self.phone_num))):

            if str(self.phone_num)[index] not in ['0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9']:

                raise ValidationError(_("Wrong Phone Number (It's Conatin Char )"))

# before creating this function you have to import ValidationError in you model just as

from odoo.exceptions import ValidationError

period between start date and end date in odoo

We can calculate the period of time between start date and end date by following the steps bellow

• go to the python class and define start_date field which will contain the start date , end_date field which will contain the end date , period_years which will contain the years between the start date and the end date which we will calculate , period_months which will contain the months between the start date and the end date which we will calculate , period_days which will contain the days between the start date and the end date which we will calculate as bellow

start_date = fields.Date(string="Start Date", required=True)

end_date = fields.Date(string="End Date", required=True)

period_years = fields.Integer(string="Years", compute="get_period_time")

period_months = fields.Integer(string="Months", compute="get_period_time")

period_days = fields.Integer(string="Days", compute="get_period_time")

• create get_period_time function which will calculate the date between the start date and the end date as

    @api.one

    def get_period_time(self):

        """

        function to calcolate the period of time 

        when we know the start date and the end date

        """

        if self.start_date and self.end_date:

            start_date = str(self.start_date)

            end_date = str(self.end_date)

            start_year_as_int = int(start_date[0]+start_date[1]+start_date[2]+start_date[3])

            start_month_as_int = int(start_date[5]+start_date[6])

            start_day_as_int = int(start_date[8]+start_date[9])

            end_year_as_int = int(end_date[0]+end_date[1]+end_date[2]+end_date[3])

            end_month_as_int = int(end_date[5]+end_date[6])

            end_day_as_int = int(end_date[8]+end_date[9])

            period_years = end_year_as_int-start_year_as_int

            period_months = end_month_as_int-start_month_as_int

            period_days = end_day_as_int-start_day_as_int

            months_list_1 = ['04','06','09','11']

            months_list_2 = ['01','03','05','07','08','10','12']

            if period_days < 0:

                if str(end_month_as_int) == '02':

                    if end_year_as_int%4 == 0:

                        period_days = 29+period_days

                    if end_year_as_int%4 != 0:

                        period_days = 28+period_days

                for index in range(0,4):

                    if end_month_as_int == int(months_list_1[index]):

                        period_days = 30+period_days

                for index in range(0,7):

                    if end_month_as_int == int(months_list_2    [index]):

                        period_days = 31+period_days

                period_months = period_months-1

            if period_months < 0:

                period_months = 12+period_months

                period_years = period_years-1

            self.period_years = period_years

            self.period_months = period_months

            self.period_days = period_days

• design our fields view as below , which will show the fields as in the image

                              <group colspan="4" col="4">

                                    <field name="start_date"/>

Action buttons in odoo

ODOO

in odoo there are more than one type of button and action button is one of them , so what is an action button ?

An action button is button which be create to call another view , and we can create it by following the steps bellow 

• create the button in xml file as 

<button name="module_name.view_button_action" icon="fa-check" type="action" string="Graduated Students" />

• create view_graduated_students function as 

@api.multi

def view_button_action(self):

     return {
            'name': _('ModelName'),
            'view_type': 'form',
            'view_mode': 'tree,form',
            'res_model': 'model.model',
            'view_id': False,
            'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
            'domain': [],
        }

cost amount by words in odoo

ODOO

 

python def

 

here we have cost amount money as number and we want to generate cost amount as words by using the number cost amount , and we can do it as bellow 

• create the cost amount number field 

amount = fields.Float(string="Amount", required=True)

• create the cost amount words field 

amount_words = fields.Float(string="Amount In Writting", readonly=True, compute='_onchange_amount') 

• create get_amount_in_words function which will convert amount to words and store it in amount_words filed

@api.onchange('amount')
    def _onchange_amount(self):
        context = self._context or {}
        if hasattr(super(ClassName, self), '_onchange_amount'):
            super(ClassName, self)._onchange_amount()
        if context.get('lang') == 'ar_SY':
            units_name = self.currency_id.currency_unit_label
            cents_name = self.currency_id.currency_subunit_label
            self.amount_words = amount_to_text_ar.amount_to_text(
                self.amount, 'ar', units_name, cents_name)

current date in odoo report

odoo

we can show the current date in odoo -V11- by multi format as bellow 

<span t-esc="context_timestamp(datetime.datetime.now()).strftime('%d/%m/%Y')"/> 

<span t-esc="context_timestamp(datetime.datetime.now()).strftime('%Y-%m-%d')"/> 

<span t-esc="context_timestamp(datetime.datetime.now()).strftime(''%Y-%m-%d %H:%M'')"/>
